Doc Type: Enhancement
Doc Text:
Previously, when importing a virtual machine from a data storage domain, if the virtual machine had a “bad” MAC address, a MAC collision may have occurred in the target LAN. A “bad” MAC address is an address that is already in use or an address that is out of the range in the target cluster. In this release, it is possible to assign a new MAC address when importing the virtual machine from a data storage domain.

Description Paul Dwyer 2015-05-29 08:26:55 UTC 
Ability to choose new Mac address from pool for existing NIC

We have a situation where we need to change a MAC address on a VM following a migration from one RHEV Environment to another. At present you can only remove the NIC and then recreate with a MAC address from the Pool. What we need is the ability to select a new MAC from the Pool as well.

Adding scope the feature:
When importing a storage domain and in the import VMs dialog, we want to have a option to reset mac from pool. This should have a select all option as well.

Not sure what 'reset mac from pool' means.
I assume nothing will be changed within the guest (via virt-sysprep or something?)
