What type of address follows a hierarchical format?
mAC ADDRESS its actually network addresses.
What is mac address format?
Media access control (MAC) addresses all network interface manufacturers to uniquely identify each network interface card (NIC) they produce. Currently there are three types of MAC address, MAC-48, EUI-48 and EUI-64. EUI is an abbreviation for extended unique identifier. MAC-48 and EUI-48 addresses are 48 bits in length while EUI-64 addresses are 64 bits in length.
What is the main function of an IP address?
Provide a unique logical address for each device on the network. Each networked device has a globally unique physical address, commonly referred to as the MAC-ID.While the MAC-ID is guaranteed to be globally unique, it refers to a particular hardware, not to a particular device. For example, your PC's Ethernet MAC-ID will change when the LAN card changes, but its logical address (the IP address) may not have to change at the same time. This allows other devices to continue communicating with your PC even after its MAC-ID changed.IP addresses are also grouped into subnets, which supports routing. It messages were sent using MAC-ID (physical) addressing, the message must be repeated into every subnet because the destination device could be anywhere.
What does Time Machine on a Mac actually do?
Time Machine is a piece of software included with the Mac operating system, Mac OS X 10.5 and higher (Leopard and higher). Time Machine functions by making a complete, bootable backup of the entire internal hard drive on a Mac onto an external hard drive of your choice (though it must be formatted specifically for the Mac, using the HFS+ formatting scheme). It makes backups of files every hour, every day, every week, and every month, until space on the chosen external drive that is used as the Time Machine is full. From that point on, the software will delete the oldest backups, and add files or changes as they are added to the internal hard drive. For example, if you make a complete backup on October 1, any changes you make after that date will be added as "incremental" backups. If your October 1 backup did not fill up your entire external hard drive, then any changes would be added on October 2. Time Machine works automatically once you have set it up, and once you have the external hard drive plugged in. It is recommended to make your backups as often as possible, in order to have the most recent files available to you in your backup, should you require them. In the latest version of the Mac operating system, Mac OS X 10.7.1, Lion, you can also make Time Machine backups to an additional internal hard drive. However, if your entire computer is destroyed or otherwise damaged, your backup would also be lost, which is why it is often recommended to have an external, if not off-site (and/or online) backup as well. Time Machine can also be configured to backup other external hard drives (such as USB flash drives) or NOT backup specific folders within your internal hard drive.
What is upgrade OS?
An operating system is the software that runs your machine such as windows / linux / mac. So if you were to upgrade it you are simply upgrading to a newer version
What is the source MAC address of the frame at the time of capture?
The source Mac Address, from which machine it is being transmitted.
Can computers have the same MAC address on a server?
No, they can't have the same mac address, because mac address is an id for a machine therefore the ip addresses are registered to the DHCP table accordingly to the mac address. So if you spoof the mac address lets say having two machines with the same mac address what will happen is that only one machine at time would be allowed once it disconnect then the other can connect. Why spoofing a mac address? I guess one of the reasons is to defeat a network administrator when they secure their network by filtering the mac addresses so by spoofing the mac address you will be able to access the internet.
What is Mac number?
This is a unique machine ID, also known as 'Mac Address' in terms of networking.
Where is the Machine address found on your computer?
The "MAC" address of your computer is built into the Ethernet board.
What is the command used on a linux machine to display the mac address?
''ipconfig/all''
Which file contain the mac address for ipv6 on Linux machine?
On a Linux machine, the MAC address for an interface can be found in the /sys/class/net/<interface>/address file, where <interface> is the name of the network interface (like eth0 or wlan0). Additionally, the MAC address can also be viewed using the ip link show <interface> command. For IPv6 specifically, while the MAC address itself doesn't change, it can be used to generate the Interface Identifier in the IPv6 address format.
What is an arp request packet for?
ARP stands for Address Resolution Protocol. This is IP's way of requesting a MAC address (or hardware address) from a host located at a certain IP address. In order for a host on a network to send a unicast packet across the network, it must know both the source and destination MAC addresses. ARP is used to obtain a MAC address similar to the way DNS is used to obtain an IP address from a domain name (www.anydomain.com).
What identifies the virtual machine and is part of the machine and physical network address?
The virtual machine is identified by its unique MAC (Media Access Control) address, which is assigned to its virtual network interface card (vNIC). This MAC address is essential for communication within the physical network, allowing the virtual machine to send and receive data. Additionally, the virtual machine has an IP (Internet Protocol) address, which is assigned within the network and enables it to connect to other devices over the internet or local network. Together, these addresses help manage and route network traffic to and from the virtual machine.
Which of the following initiates an ARP request?
An ARP request may be initiated anytime a client needs to know the IP address of a machine from its MAC address.
How do you find the original address of an ip address?
It is unclear what you mean by 'original address'. If you mean the "Real" IP address for the "Internet" then one place would be on the Router under "Status" or something similar, or on the network settings on the computer on a Windows machine, not sure if you can find it on a Mac with out the console.
What is the process a computer goes through to find another machines MAC address?
A computer uses the Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) to find another machine's MAC address. When it needs to communicate with another device on the same local network, it sends out an ARP request, which is a broadcast message that asks, "Who has this IP address?" The device that owns that IP address responds with its MAC address. Once the requesting computer receives the MAC address, it can then send data directly to the intended device.
How do you get MAC address of local machine with vbnet?
Try thisFor Each nic As System.Net.NetworkInformation.NetworkInterface In System.Net.NetworkInformation.NetworkInterface.GetAllNetworkInterfaces()If nic.OperationalStatus = Net.NetworkInformation.OperationalStatus.Up ThenMessageBox.Show(String.Format("The MAC address of {0} is{1}{2}", nic.Description, Environment.NewLine, nic.GetPhysicalAddress()))End IfNextAnil
