| MAC Address | The MAC (Media Access Control) address of the adapter. This is a | |
|

|
| MAC addresses. If you are communicating with such a network, you | |
|
| must provide the address shown here to the network administrator | |
|
| before you are allowed to connect. Restricting access by MAC address | |
|
| adds an obstacle against unwanted access to your network. However, | |
