Public bug reported: Currently users may see failures if using upper-case MAC addresses in network configuration, because cloud-init does not appropriately normalise the case of MAC addresses in all situations.
https://cloudinit.readthedocs.io/en/latest/topics/network-config- format-v2.html should be updated to (a) only use lower-case MAC addresses, and (b) indicate to users that this is an intentional choice that they need to follow.
