The first byte "OO" is two capital Os; perhaps "00" was the intended first byte of the MAC address?:

Actually, 00:11:22:33:44:55 is a perfectly legal (universally administered) MAC address:

Just enter 00-11-22 for the OUI (Organizationally Unique Identifier).
In any case, 00-11-22-33-44-55 is an often used as a _locally administered_ MAC address. Such usage is definitely illegal as can be seen by referring to:

No doubt this is what you were referring to when you said "00:11:22:33:44:55 is not a legal MAC address". A better, easy to remember locally administered MAC address would be 02:03:04:05:06:07.
