Proceedings. Eighteenth Annual Joint Conference of the IEEE Computer and Communications Societies. The Future is Now (Cat. No.99CH36320), volume 3, →DOI, page 1430:

     The MAC address substitution module then substitutes the source MAC address and the destination MAC address of the packet before it is forwarded into the interface port. The source MAC address is replaced by that of the output interface, and the destination MAC address is replaced by that of the immediate next hop (a router or the destination host).

     Our analysis illustrates that MAC address randomization policies are neither universally implemented nor effective at eliminating privacy concerns.

   • 2020, Jon Buhagiar, CCNA Certification Practice Tests: Exam 200-301, Wiley, →ISBN, page 258:
