VMWare MAC address 00-53-45-00-00-00

I just started using VMWare and have a question. I have created 5 different VMs. VMWare by default assigned a different MAC address to each VMs NIC. So that is good.

The issue is each VPN session not matter what VM I use is assigned 00-53-45-00-00-00 as the MAC address. I did some brief research and it looks like that is the default. If this going to send up any red flags to am A zon?

Thanks

Drop to a DOS prompt and type ipconfig /all

What distro are you running? If using ubutu like most VM users type in
"apt-get install macchanger ; macchanger --help ; macchanger -s eth0"
