• Manually change the MAC address

  Hello

  a client needs to keep the same MAC address for a virtual computer in its vCenter to import into his org in vCD.

  Because this server has an application and that its license is tied to the MAC address, they must keep the original MAC address. I know that I can make this request on vCenter, but not through vCD.

  Is there some sort of workaround?

  Thank you.

• Changing the MAC address of the network management

  Hello

  We have 2 servers ESXi 4 in our network. We do not know why, but both have the same MAC address on the network card virtual for the management network. That's a lot of problems with the connectivity of one of ESXi servers.

  Is it possible to change the MAC address?

  Best regards

  Removal and addition of the vswif of the service console should generate a new MAC address.

  esxcfg-vswif - l

  Note the detail.

  esxcfg-vswif vswifN d

  where N represents the number of vswif, d Deletes

  esxcfg-vswif - a n-i < IP > < vswifN > < portgroup > Pei, netmask

  is the command to add a new vswif, even when N is the number of vswif.

• WGA600N and change the MAC addresses wireless! Grrr!

  The exec summary: why in fire the wireless MAC address changes with each power cycle? It can be stopped?

  The rest of the story: just got my adapter and had problems he connect my Linksys WRT110. Discovered the hard way that the MAC address on the label is the * wired * address, not the wireless MAC address. Has been able to configure the adapter and use the admin software to watch the Mac wireless. I plugged this address into my WRT110 that has the MAC address filtering turned on. Smart card, life was good.

  Unplug the adapter and it moved to its final location. Plugged in, no connection. Received a computer laptop and connected to the card, and this amazed my eyes see but the wireless MAC address has changed with the power cycle! Unplugged the card even once, waited a few minutes, then plugged in. The wireless MAC address verified again and of course, once again changed.  When did it become an acceptable practice?

  It is of course difficult to use the card in an environment with MAC address filtering turned on. Is it possible to prevent this address change?

  Thank you

  Found the answer - the wireless adapter takes the MAC address of the device, it is well plugged. Interesting.

• Change the mac address live vm

  Hello

  I installed a vcenter and migrated all the object from the old to the new, and I imported my dvswitch. After a problem due to the import, I migrated all the VM on dvswitch to a new, and I used code powercli to assign the new portgroup below:

  Function Set-dvSwitch {}

  Param ($vmName, $dvPG) # two parameters.

  $nic = "Network adapter 1" change in # this line if you want to change the NIC 2

  # Find the NETWORK card

  $vm = get - VM $vmName | Get-View

  foreach ($tempdev in $vm. Config.Hardware.Device) {}

  if($tempdev.) DeviceInfo.Label - eq $nic) {}

  $tgtdev = $tempdev

  }

  }

  # Find the dvSwitch & dvPortGroup

  $esx is get-view-Id $vm. Runtime.Host

  {foreach ($netMoRef to $esx.Network)}

  If {($netMoRef.Type-eq "DistributedVirtualPortGroup")}

  $net = get-view-Id $netMoRef

  if($net.) {Name - eq $dvPg)}

  $dvPGKey = $net. MoRef.Value

  $dvSwitchUuid = (get-View-Id $net.) Config.DistributedVirtualSwitch). Summary.Uuid

  }

  }

  }

  # Prepare Spec

  $spec = new-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualMachineConfigSpec

  $devChange = new-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualDeviceConfigSpec

  $devChange.operation = "Edit."

  $dev = new Object ("VMware.Vim" + $tgtdev. GetType(). Name)

  $dev.deviceInfo = new-Object VMware.Vim.Description

  $dev.deviceInfo.label = $tgtdev. DeviceInfo.Label

  $dev.deviceInfo.summary = $tgtdev. DeviceInfo.Summary

  $dev. Backup = New-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualEthernetCardDistributedVirtualPortBackingInfo

  $dev. Backing.Port = New-Object VMware.Vim.DistributedVirtualSwitchPortConnection

  $dev. Backing.Port.PortgroupKey = $dvPGKey

  $dev. Backing.Port.SwitchUuid = $dvSwitchUuid

  $dev. Key = $tgtdev. Key

  $devChange.Device = $dev

  $spec.deviceChange = $devChange

  $taskMoRef = $vm. ReconfigVM_Task ($spec)

  }

  It does the job, but he has changed all the MAC of my virtual machine. Currently, I have around 400VM with a MAC OS and another MAC on the side of vmware.

  The code above has changed vm MAC I would configure the old MAC on the vm side to avoid reboot all my VM.

  If anyone knows how to do this, it will save me.

  Thank you

  It should work, tested several times without problem (if your VM 1 nic, you need to identify that one to change to another)

  $thisAdapter = get-NetworkAdapter - Vm Test123

  $thisAdapter.ExtensionData.AddressType = "manual".

  $thisAdapter.ExtensionData.MacAddress = "00:40:16:96:0 d: 94.

  Together-NetworkAdapter $thisAdapter - confirm: $false

• Why is the MAC address Clone?

  When I disabled it Clone MAC address I lost access to the internet.

  Does anyone know why MAC address Clone is necessary and what it does?

  Clone MAC address changes the MAC address of the router on the internet port.

  You can use the function of the cloning MAC address to clone the MAC address of a computer if you used before your computer directly to the modem.

  Some ISPS (especially cable ISPS) only the customers to have an active internet connection at any time. To do this, check the MAC address, that is, they remember the MAC address that accessible line via the modem and lock the connection to this MAC address.

  If you test your internet connection directly with your PC first and then connect the router the router can not get an internet connection because the row is locked to the PC's MAC address. Now if clone you the address MAC from the PC on the router the router "pretended" to be PC and the ISP will accept traffic again.

  Usually, simply reset or turn on the modem to reset the lock again. Sometimes, you have to turn off the modem for a couple of hours (for example, through the night) after a few hours of inactivity the ISP removes the lock again. Sometimes call the ISP to remove the lock, but it's not very often.

  So basically, generally useless clone MAC address at all because you could accomplish the same thing by resetting the modem or it turned off for a few minutes. If you connect the router to the modem, ISP learns the MAC address of the router and it gets working internet connection. (Of course remember, that once a computer directly connected to the modem would not get active internet connection unless you change the MAC address of the computer to the MAC address of the router).

  But the function is useful if you do not want to. You simply set the MAC address of the connected device before, and you get a working internet connection.

• Command line method of specifying the MAC address for a guest

  Can someone tell me if it is possible to manually change the mac address for a guest the cli? I was hoping that vicfg-vmknic can have an option statically assign an address but it is not. Depending on the Server Configuration guide, you can set the via the customer of VI, but the cli method is eluding me. Reason for wanting to do this is for a static dhcp address assignment

  Thank you

  Paul

  Another possibility - you can try VI Toolkit 1.5 which has a command called Set-NetworkAdapter, which allows you to set the MAC address.

• Is it possible to use a MAC address no vmware VM?

  Am I stuck with the help of a 00:50:56:xx:xx:xx MAC address in a virtual machine, or I can change it somehow do to match the MAC that is bound to the original physical server as long as I turn tie this physical server to our network?

  We have a few applications that the license is tied to the MAC address on the Server NIC physical I know I can put a static in ESX MAC and get a new license, file with the supplier for the new MAC address, but is possible to put a static MAC that isn't in the 00:50:56 so that we don't have to pass through that hoop?

  Thank you

  Hello.

  Am I stuck with the help of a 00:50:56:xx:xx:xx MAC address in a virtual machine, or I can change it somehow do to match the MAC that is bound to the original physical server as long as I turn tie this physical server to our network?

  You're stuck with the 00:50:56 for the virtual machine.  It is documented in KB, 219, but what you can do in Windows is to change the MAC address in the properties of the NETWORK adapter.

  Good luck!

• Unable to set the MAC address in a guest

  I seem to have difficulties to define a MAC address on my virtual machine.  I think I am following the steps on page 309 in the User Guide.

  In particular:

  (1) my setup is VMWare Workstation 7.0.0 build-203739.  I use a network card virtual and NAT.

  (2) I change the *.vmx file and remove the following lines:

  ethernet0. AddressType = 'generated '.

  ethernet0.generatedAddress = "" 00: 0C: 29:59:2 c: 01 ""

  ethernet0.generatedAddressOffset = '0 '.

  (3) I add the following line to the *.vmx file:

  ethernet0. Address = "00:50:56:01:01:01".

  (4) I turn on the machine.  Once it is turned on, the MAC address is now 00: 0C: 29:59:2 c: 01 and the *.vmx file also venerated the old.

  Any ideas what I'm missing or else where to go.

  Try instead the following... That's what I use without any problems (WS 7.0)

  ethernet0. AddressType = 'static '.

  ethernet0. Address = "00:50:56:01:01:01".
