Nathan,

  Create a line and vary it on.  Then display the line and the MAC address will
show there.
  Of course when creating the line you can assign your own MAC address as well. 
If you will be doing ANY SNA communication I ALWAYS recommend that you assign
your own address so that a) It is easier to enter (such as 4200 0000 0000) and 
b)
if a card ever fails you don't get a new MAC address.  You cannot override the
address on a card to the burned in address of another card.
