Bug Description
CID: 201202-10508
CID: 201202-10511
CID: 201202-10527
The MAC address would change after you power off the system for a while (few days)
201202-10508 and 201202-10511 equipped with AR8162 [1969:1090]
201202-10527 equipped with AR8161[1969:1091]
I found this issue when trying to install 12.04.5 via PXE network installation.
The MAC address changing pattern is interesting, there is a common address they will change into - 00:13:74:00:00:00
This looks like a HW issue, but I'm not very confident about it.
Maybe not a big deal, but this issue would prevent these system from being selected into our SRU pool, the worse scenario is that this system is attached to a MAC-address-
