A port is a connection point for attaching a single device, such as theNIC of a server, to a network. The port also describes the associated networkconfiguration, such as the MAC and IP addresses to be used on that port.

I have deleted a vNIC and added a new vNIC in a troubleshooting session. The problem is that the server is picky about the MAC address due to licensing and now i would like to know if there is any way to recover the mac address from the deleted vNIC. VMWARE ESXi 5 - Changing the VNIC virtual mac address. K10ee asked on 2012-05-03. VMware; Networking; 10 Comments. Last Modified: 2012-06-22. To find the current and previous MAC addresses, perform the following command: # cat./vmware.log grep MAC The output will show the date/time (in UTC) that each MAC address showed in the logs. I have deleted a vNIC and added a new vNIC in a troubleshooting session. The problem is that the server is picky about the MAC address due to licensing and now i would like to know if there is any way to recover the mac address from the deleted vNIC. Let’s take, for example, the following scenario with 2 pNICs. Assuming the MAC-address of vNIC is 00:15:5D:99:96:0B, the LSB equals 0x0B or 11 in the decimal system. In modulo operation, you split (using integer division) LSB MAC in the amount of pNIC (11 / 3), and pick the remainder (in this case, 2) as the modulus of the operation.
