Review comment:
You are not getting the "next available" if the provided MAC is null. You
are looking for the next possible MAC address if the provided one is
**invalid**. Therefore, you address not only the `null`, empty, and blank
cases, but also cases where the provided String is an invalid MAC address.
Having said that, I think the method name and its documentation can benefit
from improvements.
