You have an off-by-one error. Specifying one increment shows the start value and no increments.

>perl macIncrementor.pl 65535 1 2
00:00:00:00:FF:FF       <-- Should be 00:00:00:01:00:00
00:00:00:01:00:00       <-- Should be 00:00:00:01:00:01

It really sucks to have to convert the address to decimal before being able to use the program.

>perl macIncrementor.pl 999 1 2
00:00:00:00:03:E7
00:00:00:00:03:E8       <-- Should be 00:00:00:00:09:9A

And most importantly, it only works for 0.000015 of the address space on a 32-bit Perl.

>perl macIncrementor.pl 17179869184 1 2
00:00:FF:FF:FF:FF
