Frequently asked questions
- Are these valid MAC addresses?
- They are syntactically valid; for test use, prefer locally-administered addresses so they will not clash with real hardware.
- What is the locally-administered bit?
- Setting the second-least-significant bit of the first octet marks an address as locally assigned rather than vendor-assigned.
