Hi, I noticed other problem with the MacAddress, it appears that it does not handle the Windows ipconfig output. (see related patch) https://reviews.apache.org/r/14514/ I tested it with win8, 7, and XP outputs
As far as I remember this may be a problem when running CS cluster on windows, since each node determines the default as id.
