MAC address is fixed to the hardware device (for example a network card) and can not be changed. IP address is assignable. The default IP address for a device can be computed by converting the four right-most numbers of the MAC address from hex to decimal.
The MAC address refers to the physical address assigned by the Network Interface Card manufacturer. Example - 10.03.d5.f3.45.fc , where are an internet Protocol address is given to a computer when it gets connected to the network. Its divided into four parts , separated by fullstops.

What is the difference between a hardware address and IPv4 address?
Hardware address is the MAC address. IPv4 is the IP address. The MAC address is assigned to each network device at the time it's manufactured and does not change. The IP address is manually assigned and can be changed.
What is Mac binding?
Computers with a specified MAC address can only send and receive information with the IP address it is bound to. To use MAC address binding, you must associate an IP address on the specified interface with a MAC address.
How do you find your ip address on a mac?
Just search "My Ip Address". Its as easy as that!
When and where can use the IP-address and the MAC-address?
802.11 use MAC addresses, which are the same as IP addresses in some networks
What is unique to each operating system?
Their Serial Numbers are all different; They all have a Different IP Address and MAC Address as well.
Difference between ip address and macip?
See the OSI layer. The MAC address is the base addressing. IP addresses ride on top of the MAC Addresses.
Is a ip address flat or hierarchical?
MAC addresses are flat.
Why IP address is logical and MAC address is physical?
A MAC (Media Access Control) address is physical because it physically identifies the NIC (Network Interface Card). When two NIC's talk to each other, they address each other by MAC address. In order for this to work, the NIC's have to be connected to the same physical network. If the two NIC's are on different networks, they must use an intermediary, such as a router or gateway, to proxy the message between networks. An IP (Internet Protocol) address, on the other hand, is logical because it sits at a higher level in the protocol stack. This is similar to the relationship between NetBios, NetBeui, IPX/SPX, etc. - each of those protocols has an address, but they all ride on top of the MAC layer. There is certainly a relationship, a one-to-one relationship, between an IP address and a MAC address. This relationship is established by the ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) which runs alongside the MAC layer, or sort of in between the MAC layer and the IP layer.
What logs might reveal the IP address and MAC address within the local network?
Use ip\mac scanner: http://trogonsoftware/trogon-mac-scanner.html
Why you have two addresses Mac and protocol?
I guess you mean MAC and IP. Protocol could be any of these, and others more.A MAC address is used to communicate within a certain network, for example, Ethernet.An IP address is used to communicate between different kinds networks, or the same kind of network, but in any case, covering several hops.Layer-3 protocols, such as IP, were developed precisely to provide compatibility between otherwise incompatible networks.
What does IP use to find the MAC address for a given IP address on the local sudnet?
ARP
What is another name for a logical address?
Mac address.
