You are of course right - I was too terse. Thanks for adding the missing details.
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.
ACK - or use tools/genethaddr to generate a random locally administered MAC address.
