Hey friend,
For our system the MAC address will be created on our side and assigned at that time. It won’t change, but you wouldn’t be able to set your own.

You can optionally set up a SSH key for the root user of your new Droplet. In case you’ve already set up a SSH key in the Control Panel, just select it in the last step before you create the Droplet. Otherwise click Add SSH key and follow the instructions to set up the SSH key-based root login for the Droplet https://www.tutuapp.software/.
