Is the ethernet address of the CPU030 the serial number of the unit?

Hardware: VXI/VME/MXI>>VXI Controllers>>VXIcpu-030

Problem: Is the ethernet address of the CPU030 the serial number of the unit?

Solution: The VXIcpu-030’s Ethernet address is of the form 00802fxxxxxx. The 00802f portion identifies the VXIcpu-030 as a product from National Instruments, and is hard-coded into the ROM. The xxxxxx portion of the Ethernet address is set at the factory to match the VXIcpu-030’s serial number to ensure that the Ethernet address for each VXIcpu-030 is unique.
The xxxxxx portion is stored in the NVRAM on the VXIcpu-030 at address 0xfffe0778, and is a 24-bit number.
