If DECnet Phase IV support is required under Hyper-V, MAC address spoofing must be enable. However, Microsoft Hyper-V versions prior to Windows Server 2008 R2 Hyper-V and Hyper-V Server 2008 R2 do not support MAC address spoofing. This prevents the MAC address change inherent in a DECnet Phase IV installation. DECnet Phase IV support under Hyper-V requires a Hyper-V release that supports MAC address spoofing.
