Hi everyone. I need to install a software license server vm which requires a MAC address to stay consistent. How can I use the same MAC address if I decide to reinstall this VM?

Thanks! Newbie here!

MAC addresses are always fixed until
  • you change it manually
  • delete and recreate the VM
  • clone the vm
backup & restore will restore the previous mac address.
