One example may involve a first computer system may determining a first MAC address portion that is uniquely associated with the first computer system. A first VNIC may be assigned with a first MAC address that includes (a) the first MAC address portion and (b) a third MAC address portion that is uniquely associated with the first VNIC on the first computer system. A second VNIC may be assigned with a second MAC address that includes (a) the first MAC address portion and (b) a fourth MAC address portion that is uniquely associated with the second VNIC on the first computer system.
