The MAC Address generator generates a string that is formatted as a MAC address.
Link object structure
The MAC Address generator does not support linking. It can be self-consistent, but not consistent with another column. You cannot configure differential privacy.
The metadata object is populated from the MacAddressMetadata object. bytesPreserved specifies the number of bytes to preserve in the generated address.

Example replacement
In the following example replacement for the MAC Address generator, the generated values preserve 4 bytes. Consistency is disabled.
