What is MAC Address |
Video Title: What is a MAC Address?
Video Description:
A MAC address, or Media Access Control address, is a unique identifier assigned to a network interface controller (NIC). It is used to identify devices on a network and to control how they communicate with each other.
MAC addresses are typically written in six groups of two hexadecimal digits, separated by colons or hyphens. For example, a MAC address might look like this: 00:0a:95:9d:68:16
MAC addresses are assigned by the manufacturer of the NIC, and they are typically permanent. However, some devices allow you to change the MAC address.
MAC addresses are used in a variety of ways, including:
To identify devices on a network
To control how devices communicate with each other
To troubleshoot network problems
To implement access control lists
To track device movement
In this video, I'll explain what MAC addresses are and how they work. I'll also show you how to find the MAC address of your devices.
