If the DRAC is configured to use the dedicated NIC port, the MAC address
correlation would not hold.  Any DRAC that uses a shared NIC port should
have a correlated MAC address, though.  Older DRAC cards will not
support this, but it is available on DRAC 5 and later.


You can set the shared/dedicated selection from the DRAC web GUI (System
-> Configuration -> Network; attribute "NIC selection") or via racadm
config -g cfgLanNetworking -o cfgNicSelection.  Of course, if the DRAC
is only physically connected via the dedicated NIC port, it would
probably be difficult to get the MAC address of the shared NIC port.
