+ * The '<em>set interface mac address </em>' command allows to set MAC address of given interface.
+ * In case of NIC interfaces the one has to support MAC address change. A side effect of MAC address
+ * change are changes of MAC addresses in FIB tables (ipv4 and ipv6).

+ * @cliexcmd{set interface mac address GigabitEthernet0/8/0 aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:01}
