If `no_separators` is true, the validator will allow MAC addresses without separators. Also, it allows the use of hyphens, spaces or dots e.g  '01 02 03 04 05 ab', '01-02-03-04-05-ab' or '0102.0304.05ab'. The options also allow a `eui` property to specify if it needs to be validated against EUI-48 or EUI-64. The accepted values of `eui` are: 48, 64.
