Looks like you are trying to locally administer the MAC address(for talking

2.22.1.2 Valid Return Codes


X'00' Operation has been completed successfully 
X'08' 
       Unauthorized access priority 
X'22' 
       Error on frame transmission, check TRANSMIT_ERROR data 
X'23' 
       Error in frame transmit or strip process 
X'24' 
       Unauthorized MAC frame

       Link not transmitting I frames, state changed from link opened 
X'28' 
       Transmit frame length not valid command

I'm not exactly sure what that means. Invalid frame length?
