Hello,
I was trying to see my MAC address and when i run the command I got 3 different MAC's addresses.

$ ifconfig | grep ether
ether -MAC- txqueuelen 0 (Ethernet)
ether -MAC- txqueuelen 1000 (Ethernet)
ether -MAC- txqueuelen 1000 (Ethernet)

Why is this happening?
I delete de MAC int copy/paste for sec.

Thanks and excuse my english.

You likely have multiple virtual ethernet adapters/IPs configured for the same interface. If you just try "ifconfig" you may be able to tell which one you're actually using by the number of TX/RX packets, IP address, etc.

I hope this helps
