What is a MAC address? What is the difference between an IP address and a MAC address? The MAC or media access control address is an identifier that every network device uses to uniquely identify itself on a network.

    • I'm confused a little. Say the Google web server sends responses back to the source how will the router know which host to send responses if MAC addresses swap from hardware to hardware? On top of that the IP address is translated from private to public and vice versa. How does the router determine which private IP made the requests? When two hosts in two different networks want to communicate do they use private or public IPs?

    • ​@@recommend-urjnot743 Well, then it's a shame that an individual has more facilities than a school/university, In my opinion I think they can't give what they don't have (i.e. enough knowledge or teaching skills)

  • I went to university to study IT and I always felt super dumb (I failed the very first year lol), could never understand networks. Now, I am taking a cybersecurity online certificate and I must say, I understand it thanks to YOU!!!! I can't express how grateful I am for your videos, I finally get this!!! thank you so so much

  • As an engineer, I really like your videos and how you explain these topics! I often recommend them to our newer employees at work since their base education from school often leaves a lot of gaps in the fundamentals they need.

  • One minor point. While MAC addresses are supposed to be unique, this isn't always so. Some manufacturers have been known to reuse them. Regardless, since MAC addresses are relevant only on the local network, this is usually not a problem. With IP, the MAC address is discarded at the first router and replaced with the MAC address of the interface on the next hop, etc.. Also, there are some links that don't have a MAC address. These would typically software created links, such as VPNs. The router only has to know how to reach the next hop and that can be designated by just the interface.

    • Extra note: with the additional usage of virtual machines, VM kind of cloned the physical card and provide you with an "additional MAC address". On a side note, you can actually spoofed your MAC address on some NIC (commonly used in packet injection for WIFI hacking). In such scenarios, MAC addresses can actually be not unique.

      @thelazychewresearch4299@thelazychewresearch42992 жыл бұрын

    • Right, they also usually take the duplicate MAC address NICs and ship them off to different parts of the world, so there's even less of a chance they'll ever meet in a single network and cause problems.
