> We should allocate same MAC addresses for the same public ip(because in VRRP’s RFC, they mentioned the interface should have the same MAC address). We use some random bits in our generated MAC for “security reason”, result in everytime we get these public address we would get a new MAC for it. 
> And all the additional nics are not recorded in the nic table, so there is no way for us to track it.
