The MAC address is a six-pair set of hexadecimal numbers, for example <code>a1-c2-e3-44-5f-6d</code>. Specifically, in Ethernet, the MAC address is known as the Ethernet Address, which is the unique ID serial number of the Ethernet device in one's computer. MAC Addresses are used in a Local Area Network (LAN) by computers to communicate with each other. Every adapter has a unique MAC address.
