Every device that is part of a computer network has at least one unique hardware ID called a Media Access Control address (MAC address).\u00a0This MAC address is assigned and attached to the network adapter during the creation process.\u00a0If your device has more than one network updater or LAN connection such as Ethernet, Wi-Fi, FDDI, Bluetooth or Token Ring, then each LAN connection has a different MAC address.<\/p>\n

MAC address<\/strong> is a number or unique identification code to identify each device on a computer network.\u00a0MAC addresses are composed of 6 2-digit hexadecimal numbers, separated by colons.\u00a0MAC address is also often referred to as a hardware address or physical address.\u00a0In identifying a device on the network, the MAC address works in conjunction with the IP address.\u00a0In the OSI (Open System Interconnection) model, MAC addresses are at layer 2 and IP addresses are at layer 3.<\/p>\n

Is this MAC address important enough to know? There is a reason you might need to know the MAC address of a device.
