MAC address
: Every device that is to be used
in an Ethernet needs a unique MAC (Media Ac-
cess Control) address. This consists of 6 Bytes
and that are generally separated by colons or
hyphens when the address is written out (hexadecimal,
e.g. 00:0a:44:02:00:49 or 00-0a-44-02-00-49). The first
three bytes are always 00:0A:44 (Avery identifier); the
last 3 bytes vary from device to device. Manufacturers
are responsible for assigning MAC addresses to the
devices they make.
IP address
: The labeller firmware implements a TCP/IP
protocol stack, which means that the labeller needs an
IP address for the network in addition to its MAC ad-
dress. IP addresses are always written in decimal for-
