(changed title to reflect content)

> When specified mac ranges for given "scope", where there wasn't any definition previously, allocated MAC from default pool will not be moved to "scoped" one until next engine restart. Other way, when removing "scoped" mac pool definition, all MACs from this pool will be moved to default one.

cna you please elaborate on this one?

as for potential other "scopes" - i can think of cluster, vm pool and 
logical network as potential ones.

one more question - how do you know to "return" the mac address to the 
correct pool on delete?
