Locally Administered Address

The Locally Administered Address overrides the initial MAC address with a user- assigned MAC address. To enter a new network address, type a 12-digit hexadecimal number in this box.

To change this setting:

This setting is found on the Advanced tab of the device’s Device Manager property sheet or in the Adapter Settings panel.

To change this setting in Windows PowerShell*, use the Set-IntelEthernetSetting cmdlet. For example:

Set-IntelEthernetSetting -Name "<adapter_name>" -DisplayName "Locally
Administered Address" -DisplayValue "<desired address>"

Possible values for this setting are:

0000 0000 0001 - FFFF FFFF FFFD

Note:

Exceptions:

Do not use a multicast address (Least Significant Bit of the high byte = 1). For example, in the address 0Y123456789A, Y cannot be an odd number. (Y must be 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, A, C, or E.)
Do not use all zeros or all Fs.
If you do not enter an address, the address is the original network address of the adapter. For example:
```
Multicast: 0123 4567 8999 Broadcast: FFFF FFFF FFFF
Unicast (legal): 0070 4567 8999
```
