Eoe mac address now derived from unique mac.
The EoE MAC address is now derived from the NIC part of the first global
unique MAC address of the linked list of available network interfaces or
otherwise the MAC address used by the EtherCAT master. The EoE MAC address
will get the format 02:NIC:NIC:NIC:RP:RP where NIC comes from the unique MAC
address (if available) and RP is the ring position of the EoE slave.

# Main Ethernet devices.
#
# The MASTER<X>_DEVICE variable specifies the Ethernet device for a master
# with index 'X'.
#
# Specify the MAC address (hexadecimal with colons) of the Ethernet device to
# use. Example: "00:00:08:44:ab:66"
#
# The broadcast address "ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff" has a special meaning: It tells
# the master to accept the first device offered by any Ethernet driver.
#
# The MASTER<X>_DEVICE variables also determine, how many masters will be
# created: A non-empty variable MASTER0_DEVICE will create one master, adding a
# non-empty variable MASTER1_DEVICE will create a second master, and so on.
#
MASTER0_DEVICE=""
#MASTER1_DEVICE=""
#
# Backup Ethernet devices
#
# The MASTER<X>_BACKUP variables specify the devices used for redundancy. They
# behaves nearly the same as the MASTER<X>_DEVICE variable, except that it
# does not interpret the ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff address.
#
#MASTER0_BACKUP=""
#
# Ethernet driver modules to use for EtherCAT operation.
#
# Specify a non-empty list of Ethernet drivers, that shall be used for EtherCAT
# operation.
#
# Except for the generic Ethernet driver module, the init script will try to
# unload the usual Ethernet driver modules in the list and replace them with
# the EtherCAT-capable ones. If a certain (EtherCAT-capable) driver is not
# found, a warning will appear.
#
# Possible values: 8139too, e100, e1000, e1000e, r8169, generic, ccat.
# Separate multiple drivers with spaces.
#
# Note: The e100, e1000, e1000e, r8169 and ccat drivers are not built by
# default. Enable them with the --enable-<driver> configure switches.
#
# Attention: When using the generic driver, the corresponding Ethernet device
# has to be activated (with OS methods, for example 'ip link set ethX up'),
# before the master is started, otherwise all frames will time out.
#
DEVICE_MODULES=""
#
# Flags for loading kernel modules.
#
# This can usually be left empty. Adjust this variable, if you have problems
# with module loading.
