1.7.1. Preserving the MAC Address

The MAC Address of an Azure* virtual machine derives from the Network Interface resource attached to the machine.
  • If the machine stops and restarts, the MAC address persists.
  • If the machine terminates and you want to launch a new machine using the same MAC address, you must attach the previous Network Interface to the new machine.

To replace a virtual machine's Network Interface:

  1. From the Azure* portal, select the license server's virtual machine.
  2. Stop the virtual machine.
  3. From the side menu, select Networking.
  4. Click Attach Network Interface and select the original Network Interface.
  5. Click Detach Network Interface and select the new Network Interface.
