    ​

  2. Navigate to the Network Adapter in the settings window, and select the Advanced Features from the options
    ​

  3. Under the MAC Address section, select Static to enable setting a static MAC address. Then enter the desired MAC address in the provided field
    ​

  4. After entering the desired MAC address, click Apply to save the changes.
    ​

  5. If it is a new server, you can begin the installation of Windows. If it is an existing server, it is recommended to restart it to ensure the settings are applied.
