No, but if you have more than one port, it's typical to have one MAC per port. This helps to tell which port of a switch a device is connected to, for example (e.g. used in profinet for simple device replacement).
For a single port device, the MAC address used for lldp can obviously be the same lwip uses.
I was just saying lwip does not very well support multi port devices.
