Attaches a virtual MAC address to an additional IP of a dedicated server.
A virtual MAC lets an additional IP be used behind its own network interface (for example a bridged virtual machine or a dedicated host interface): OVHcloud routes the IP only when traffic originates from the associated MAC. The MAC address itself is generated by OVHcloud and exposed as mac_address.
NOTE The virtual MAC is created together with its first IP. Destroying this resource removes the IP from the virtual MAC; OVHcloud releases the virtual MAC once its last IP is detached.
Example Usage

virtualMachineName: "my-vm",
});
