How to change mac address for your device in Kali Linux?

Kali Linux has a built-in tool which is called “macchanger”, using this tool we can easily change our mac address.

Step1: To start this tool, First, open a terminal and write macchanger -h

this should show tool information.

Step2: Writing macchanger -s eth0 on the terminal we can see the current and permanent mac address.

Step3: Here eth0 is the type of your network interface card, to see which type network interface card for your device then open another terminal and execute ifconfig .its will show your network interface card, for me it is eth0.

Step4: Now if we want to set a random mac address then execute macchanger -r eth0 we can see that there is added another mac address named New mac and this is our new mac address.

Step5: Now re-enter macchanger -s eth0 then we can see that our Current mac Address changed.

Step6: If we want to set a mac address for our own choice then we need to execute this command macchanger — mac=OwnChoiceMacAddress eth0

Step7: Now if we re-enter macchanger -s eth0 then we can see that our own choice mac address set for our Current mac address.

Step8: Finally if we want to clear the new mac address and make it our default mac address then execute this command macchanger -p eth0

Step9: Now enter macchanger -s eth0 we can now see our default mac address is set as our current mac address.
