MAC Address
The Media Access Control address (MAC Address) is a unique identifier assigned to network interfaces
for communications on the physical network segment. Each device on a physical network segment must be
unique amongst all devices on the network segment to allow network traffic to be routed to and from the
correct hardware device. MAC addresses may be assigned universally across all manufactured devices or
locally by the device users. The CFSound-IV supports locally administered MAC addresses – the address is
assigned to the display by the user or network administrator, replacing the configured default address.
The MAC address is 48 bits long and is typically expressed as six groups of hexadecimal digits separated
by colons in transmission order.
