I need to setup a vnic using dladm and need to have a sun valid mac address

If I do:
dladm create-vnic -l rge0 -m factory vnic0

dladm: vnic creation over rge0 failed: operation not supported

dladm create-vnic -l rge0 -m random vnic5

works and created a vnic but with a mac address that does not belong to sun.
At work they have detection software running that flags non vendor mac 
addresses so I need to be able to assign a valid sun mac address to this vnic.

How can I get this to work?

One way would be to use the  '-r prefix' option.

i.e.
dladm create-vnic -l rge0 -m random -r 'allowed vendor OUI address' vnic5
