[et-mgmt-tools] [PATCH] check a MAC address format

[Saori Fukuta]

Hi,

When I install by virt-intall with invalid MAC address(e.g."--mac=AA:"),
virt-install get an error message that says "unable to connect to
host:Connection refused(111)".

So, here's the patch adds to check a MAC address with following format:
    xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx ( xx should be in hexadecimal )

Thanks,
