 * Name: ether_ntoa
 *
 * Description:
 *   The ether_ntoa() function converts the Ethernet host address addr given
 *   in network byte order to a string in standard hex-digits-and-colons
 *   notation. The string is returned in a statically allocated buffer, which
 *   subsequent calls will overwrite.
