Explanation
To set a locally administered address for the adapter, type in the
local address that you want to use. The local address must contain
12 hexadecimal characters and can be specified in either MSB (the
default), or LSB format. To specify an MSB node address, the letter
"M" immediately follows the last digit of the node address. To
specify an LSB node address the letter "L" immediately follows the
last digit of the node address.
This keyword is specified as NODE ADDRESS in NET.CFG for
DOS and OS/2 workstations.
If a node address is specified in MSB format, the characters must
be within the range X'400000000000' — X'7FFFFFFFFFFF'. To
specify a node address in MSB format, add an "M" to the end of
the address (for example, X'400000000000M'). This address
specified in LSB format would be X'020000000080L'.

1. Do not assign the same local address to two or more stations.
2. If you do not assign a locally administered address, the adapter
