Like the following
017 Root Path iscsi:192.168.0.1::::${net0/mac}
in which would expand to
017 Root Path iscsi:192.168.0.1::::52-54-00-12-34-56
or
017 Root Path iscsi:192.168.0.1::::525400123456

but by default the mac address varible returns ":" which do not work.

As described in the Notes section at http://ipxe.org/cfg/mac#notes, you can use ${net0/mac:hexhyp} to obtain the MAC address using a hyphen separator. Maybe this is what you want?
