NIC
Find the mac address of that computer.
NIC stands for Network Interface Card. It is connected to the motherboard of the computer. It provides the device with a MAC address and allows a device to access a computer network such as the internet.
MAC provides physical addressing. The BIA (Burn In Address) which is stored in RAM when the computer boots up is added to each frame that is created as the source mac address. But to answer your question, the MAC layer does the following: Data Encapsulation and Media Access Control.
TCP
The MAC address is a unique identifier for a networking card. Each networking card has a MAC address assigned to it during it's manufacturing, and thus it does not change when a computer moves between networks (unlike an IP address which is assigned by the network). A few things to note: - A computer only has a MAC address if it has a physical or virtual network card - A computer has as many MAC addresses as it has networking cards - MAC addresses CAN be modified before being broadcast to the rest of the network, however generally this results in the computer not receiving intended traffic and requires specialized software
Find the mac address of that computer.
The Answer is Yes And No Both, Yes Because They can hack and no Because There is a Authentication Required for that ------- The MAC (Media Adapter Address) address is only a hardware identifier. There is no intelligence to hack. It can only be used to uniquely identify a specific network component.
The "MAC" address of your computer is built into the Ethernet board.
hi u can find the mac address of computer by ipconfig/all command in command prompt. Thanks

A Media Access Control address (MAC address) is what identifies your computer on a network. You should be able to find it within your network preferences or in a summary of the computers status.
Each computer has a unique name, IP address and MAC address. (not MAC as in McIntosh.)
There's no really much harm in actually showing someone your MAC Address. All i make MAC Address is a 12 digital and letter code that identifies the network card. If someone had your MAC Address they could try and gain access to your network. But that's all. *edit* Yeah, like what the previous person said. If someone got your MAC address and IP address, when you turn on your computer they could try to MAC spoof their way into your network by making their computer looking like your computer.
ipconfig /all
for Windows Systems use IPCONFIG /ALL command to view Mac Address. for Linux Systems use IFCONFIG -A command to view Mac Address.
