[Resolved] Vmware Player Multiple Bridge Adapter Showing Same MAC Address with different IPs in Router

Hello All,

I am in the process of building an internal web server for testing. I am having the issue of trying to get my Netgear Router to identify each individual MAC Address. Instead it is just copying the MAC Address of Eth0(Eth1 in the Chart below). Granted each IP is different, they are all associated with the main eth interface MAC Address. Can I get VMWare to tell my Netgear that each IP is suppose to be an separated MAC Address? or Would this be more of a Netgear issue?

Host OS: Linux Mint 17

Host Machine Specs:
--Dell Precision T7500

--5 GB RAM

--Quad Core Motherboard/CPU

--1 Physical NIC Interface

Virtual OS: CentOS 6.6

# of Bridged Adapters: 10

Eth #MAC Address
100:50:56:21:C2:93
200:50:56:33:E7:42
300:50:56:25:19:2D
400:50:56:3E:A3:0A
500:50:56:32:7C:86

So,

I statically assign(DHCP Reserve in Netgear) on each generated MAC Address, and though the Netgear sees the eth0 MAC Address for all, it still assigns an IP for each different MAC.
