I think this was on a help page somewhere that I stumbled across. #! /usr/bin/python # macgen.py script generates a MAC address for Xen guests # import random mac = [ 0x00, 0x16, 0x3e, random.randint(0x00, 0x7f), random.randint(0x00, 0xff), random.randint(0x00, 0xff) ] print ':'.join(map(lambda x: "%02x" % x, mac))
