    Posted Jun 28, 2016 04:43 PM

    In my network configuration management software I am seeing frequent changes to the "HW MAC Addr" line when the show invetory command is run. I see some strange values here as well, sometimes they are not even valid mac addresses.

     

    -# HW MAC Addr                  : 00:0b:86:b7:25:cf to 00:0b:86:b7:25:161
    +# HW MAC Addr                  : 00:0b:86:b7:25:cf to 00:0b:86:b7:25:ce

     

    What does the HW MAC Addr line in show inventory represent? Why is it changing?
