Why use strncmp with (..., 1)? These offsets should defines above and not 
use literals.

Why you're not using AUXMAC_START here?

It's also bit confusing that some of the offset are hex and some non-hex 
numbers.

Don't use memcpy() for copying a string.

What about the termination of auxmac? It's given

Again, don't use memcpy() to copy a string. You even got it wrong here 
compared with the other case where you copied also the zero terminator.

This requires proper termination for the string but you didn't ensure it 
above.
