It is not a review of this work, but I tried doing:
/^([0-9a-fA-F][0-9a-fA-F](:|-)){5}([0-9a-fA-F][0-9a-fA-F])$/;This is to allow use of - or : has proposed in one regex. The issue is that, it made this valid:
01-02-03:04-05-ab, which is not.
Separating the regex allowed to validate different options. It is a convention to use either :, - or .
On that note, I also added spaces, which was not in the initial proposed bug. But, on research, it is still a valid MACAddress.
If there is a better way of making the regex one instead of 3 or 4 variables, I am welcoming ideas from the community. Thank you.

From what I see, the code looks okay, making it one regex will almost be the same logic since we will be OR'ing |).
Just a small nitpick, perhaps calling the variables ...With... instead of ..Using... will sound more "palatable" :)
Other than that, all LGTM 👍

I was also still figuring out, why do we need an option for colons?
Instead of just allowing different cases of validations.

Sure, that might not be necessary.

To make sure that I don't break on things, I will leave it for now.
And propose changes.
Thanks, @profnandaa.
