MAC: is a username convention used in a normal SIP: URI. OK, I finally had a chance to look, and you're right. So as far as the config framework goes, there is no reason to define a MAC URN-namespace. But I did do a search on the I-Ds I have accumulated, and found a few instances where "MAC:xxxxxxx" *is* used as a URN. draft-ietf-simple- presence-data-model-07.txt and draft-ietf-simple-rpid-05.txt take the approach of using a MAC URN as a device identifier. Curiously, all the examples use the syntax "mac:xxxxxxxxxx", whereas RFC 2141 makes it clear that the syntax would have to be "urn:max:xxxxxxxxxxxx". If the subject of these drafts were to advance toward standardization, the "MAC URN" is something that would have to be cleared up. But as Josh points out, that need not be done for the config framework, as as others have pointed out, suitable device-dependent "instance identifiers" can be generated using the standardized UUID mechanism.
