Defining a Locally Administered Network Address
A default network address is encoded for the 3C359 NIC
during manufacturing. This address is called the universal
address (UAA), or “burned-in” address.
To customize the address for your network administration
needs, you can assign a locally administered address (LAA)
that overrides the NIC’s universal address. The LAA address
must consist of 12 hexadecimal digits in the range from
X’4000 0000 0000’ to X’7FFF FFFF FFFF’ and must be
unique throughout the network.
In most cases, you will use the preset UAA address and not
have to define an LAA address. Check with your network
administrator before using this feature.
