in reply to Regular Expression for MAC Address

Are you trying to extract the address or just check for a match?

To check for a match: 

/^([0-9a-f]{2}([:-]|$)){6}$/i

[download]
To extract the address: 
@nums = split /[:-]/, $mac;

[download]
To match and extract an address whole, from a line containting other text: 
/((?:[0-9a-f]{2}[:-]){5}[0-9a-f]{2})/i
