When doing ZTP of an MNO cluster for Telcos, they need to control the mac address of the bond interfaces they create. That can take place according to nmstate using the copy-mac-from https://nmstate.io/devel/api.html#interfacecopy_mac_from. That does not work because the nmstateconfig file produces does not pass the validation of infraenv

    Through siteconfig you have the following nmstateconfig
