What is cienaCesIpInterfaceL3InterfaceBaseMac?

This reports the single base MAC address the device uses as the foundation for all its Layer-3 interfaces, from which individual interface MACs may be derived. An admin building an inventory of expected MAC addresses across the fleet, for instance to pre-populate a NAC or DHCP reservation system, uses this base MAC as the anchor value for that specific chassis. A value like 00:1B:25:88:10:00 would be the chassis-wide base address that individual L3 interface MACs are offset from.

Examples
