unable to change AP mac

[danio0701]

Hi, I want to change every reboot AP mac. I used command set sta_mac random but every reboot device have same AP Mac.
of course I tried use command like set ap_mac random but it not exist and return "Invalid argument".

I also tried set ap_mac 01:0:5e:00:03:fb but it gives also "Invalid argument".

Any advice?

I see that if I send set ap_mac 01:0a:5e:00:03:fe it return "AP MAC set" but when I run command from mac terminal I see still same mac address
