I actually have a question for you, and Lubo;

In the wpa_supplicant, Pre-association MAC random-ization is
disabled
per default:

https://w1.fi/cgit/hostap/tree/doc/dbus.doxygen#n964
PreassocMacAddr
Pre-association MAC address policy

https://w1.fi/cgit/hostap/tree/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
#n41
8
# MAC address policy for pre-association operations (scanning,
ANQP)
# 0 = use permanent MAC address
# 1 = use random MAC address
# 2 = like 1, but maintain OUI (with local admin bit set)
#preassoc_mac_addr=0


and the same was said, toward NetworkManager, in:

https://cgit.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/tree/N
EWS#
n8
* Added an option to enable use of random MAC addresses for Wi-Fi
access
    point scanning (defaults to disabled).  Controlled with
    'wifi.mac-address-randomization' property
(MAC_ADDRESS_RANDOMIZATION key in
    ifcfg files).
Yeah, this is wrong. I fixed it:

id=e0e1c5916073deac49d27a9ee2343073f5fe552a

When NM detects support in wpa-supplicant, it always sets
PreassocMacAddr to 1. This setting is only relevant during
scanning,
and thus NM *always* enables it.

What seems like a viable option is randomizing the MAC address
while
scanning,
changing it every now and then,
but still use the hard-wired MAC address for association and
actual
connectivity. [...]
With the upcoming NetworkManager 1.2 we’re doing this too. [...]

Is not that, as mentioned in the NEWS, in fact MAC random-ization 
per
connecting, not MAC random-ization per scanning!?
You are right.





That is, in the wpa_supplicant, Connection MAC random-ization:

https://w1.fi/cgit/hostap/tree/doc/dbus.doxygen#n954
MacAddr
MAC address policy default

https://w1.fi/cgit/hostap/tree/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
#n40
5
# MAC address policy default
# 0 = use permanent MAC address
# 1 = use random MAC address for each ESS connection
# 2 = like 1, but maintain OUI (with local admin bit set)
#
# By default, permanent MAC address is used unless policy is
changed
by
# the per-network mac_addr parameter. Global mac_addr=1 can be
used
to
# change this default behavior.
#mac_addr=0


toward NetworkManager, what -you- said in:

https://mail.gnome.org/archives/networkmanager-list/2016-May/msg0
0042

<quote>
The mac-address-randomization connection-setting on the other
hand,
configures the behavior while being connected.

Could we randomize the permanent address too?
We added option for that to NetworkManager 1.2 too, but are
leaving
it off. [...]

What is what, and what is not!? :)


Hi poma,


yes, the NEWS file was wrong.

Also, as we already found out, another mistake was that wpa-
supplicant
support is not yet available in 2.4. It is currently only on master
(and will be in supplicant version 2.6)
-- unless we backport it, for which you opened a Fedora bug (thank
you).


Lubo's "but are leaving it off." statement means:
if you leave the per-connection setting wifi.mac-address-
randomization
at "default", then the default means "off"
-- unless you overwrite it via a global default value in
/etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf, see `man
NetworkManager.conf`.



Does this resolve all unclarities?


Of course!

Here's the answer to your question - "Why do you say that "rand-mac"
does not work?"

If you run the supplicant with debug logging, do you see messages like:

nl80211: set_mac_addr for wlp0s2f1u3 to XXXXXXXXXX
Using random MAC address XXXXXXXX

or do you see any messages like:

Failed to set random MAC address

?
