MAC address

[vines]

Hi All,

It seems that the MAC address for the MQX is generated depending on the parameters you pass it into.

ENET_get_mac_address(ENET_DEVICE, ipDataGlobal.ip, tempMAC);

Isn't suppose to be a running number based from the manufacturer? If no, can I just use any generated running number here and not worry about licenses or something?

Thank You.

Ivan is right, just would like to add the function which should be modified for production: _bsp_get_mac_address() function in your BSP (init_enet.c source file).

For testing you can use the MAC address you want.

For production you need to acquire a MAC range. Follow this link IEEE-SA - Registration Authority OUI

Some MCUs already have a registered MAC address of the manufacturer you can use.
