When backing up routing config to JSON, discovered IP worked correctly, but HardwareAddr did not.
I think adding MarshalText and UnmarshalText to HardwareAddr will make it more consistent with IP.

Thanks.

It's easy to make own marshaler and unmarshaler stuff, and please do so.

IIRC, there's no standardized canonical form of textual representation even for IEEE stuff such as MAC-48/64, EUI-48/64. If you need to choose a format for your application, perhaps this RFC, https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7043, would be a help; I mean "two-digit hexadecimal numbers separated by hyphens."
