    Bootloader/Yocto labs: use a locally-administered MAC Address
    
    00:01:02:03:04:05 is a globally-administered MAC Address, assigned to
    3COM CORPORATION.
    
    This is most likely not a problem in real world cases, but for the sake of
    precision and to be extra safe, let's be picky and use an address with the
    locally-administered bit set.
