Locally
Administered
Address
The Locally Administered Address is a user-defined address that is used
in place of the MAC address originally assigned to the adapter. Every
adapter in the network must have its own unique MAC address. This
locally administered address consists of a 12-digit hexadecimal number.
To change the Locally Administered Address property, perform the
following procedure:
1. Start either a Windows Server 2003 system or a Windows XP system
and log in.
You must have Administrator privileges to update the driver software.
2. On the desktop, right click My Computer .
The My Computer window opens.
3. Select Properties from the menu.
The System Properties dialog box opens, as shown in Figure 8 on
page 36.
4. Click the Advanced tab.
The Advanced tab is shown in Figure 13 on page 42.
5. From the Properties list, select Locally Administered Address .
6. In the Values list enter the Locally Administered Address.
ˆ
The range is 0000 0000 0001 to FFFF FFFF FFFD.
ˆ
Do not use a multicast address (least significant bit of the high
byte = 1).
ˆ
Do not use all 0's or all F's.
7. Click OK .
8. If prompted to restart your computer, click Yes .
Even though it is not necessary to reboot the system for new adapter
properties to take effect, rebooting is recommended to reinitialize all
registers.

Description” on page 20.
