Randomized MAC Address?
-
Any ideas why the MAC address of my Pixel XL phone does not match what is shown in pfSense under DHCP Leases?
Although I have randomized MAC address turn off on my Pixel 3 phone, I'm finding when I log onto my WiFi on the different LANs or frequencies (LAN or DMZ networks, 2.4GHZ or 5GHz) I get a different MAC addresses shown under DHCP Leases.
The MAC address on my phone under Settings | About phone | Wi-Fi MAC address doesn't change, but the MAC that shows up against the IP address in the pfSense DHCP Leases is different.
I was trying to setup a static IP address for my phone and this is making it difficult.

Use Packet Capture to see what's actually in the frame. You'll then have to download the capture to view in Wireshark, to see the MAC addresses.
