CC3000 MAC addresses - Factory? Where Stored?

[digsigblake]

Howdy - I/we have couple of questions about Adadfruit CC3000 Shield MAC addresses.

1a) Does the Adafruit CC3000 Shield come from Adafruit with a unique (in all the world), factory-set, MAC address (that can't be overwritten) stored in it? If yes, where in the Adafruit examples would I see how to extract that address?

1b) Is there a unique-in-all-the-world MAC address set-aside for each Adafruit CC3000 Shield? Even though Arduino Ethernets sold by Adafruit don't have a persistent MAC Address burned into their hardware, they do have a unique address printed on a label affixed to the card. I'm wondering if the CC3000 shields have a similar, loosely associated MAC written down somewhere.

2) When the Adafruit CC3000 Shield example software stores a persistent MAC address into an UNO/CC3000 combination, where is that address stored? I think it goes into NVRAM somewhere. If I'm right, is that NVRAM on the Uno, or on the CC3000?

Thanks in advance,
Blake

The MAC address is stored in the CC3000's EEPROM.

I don't work with the chip's internals persoanlly, but IIRC each module is configured with a Universally-Unique ID (UUID) at the factory. I don't think we change it.

The CC3000 API contains a couple of functions in the Nvram module that can set or retrieve the MAC address, but we don't expose them through the Adafruit_CC3000 library.
