OK, now I'm confused.

For MacSpoofing we per default don't have the "macspoof" feature in the
engine am I right ?

To get that... you need to set:

engine-config -s EnableMACAntiSpoofingFilterRules=false --cver=3.X

But no hook needs to be installed for this ? I don't have ping at the
momment with macspoof set on true on a VM.
