  3. MAC filtering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MAC_filtering

    In computer networking, MAC address filtering is a network access control method whereby the MAC address assigned to each network interface controller is used to determine access to the network. MAC addresses are uniquely assigned to each card, so using MAC filtering on a network permits and denies network access to specific devices through the ...

  4. MAC address anonymization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MAC_Address_Anonymization

    Another approach that has been tested is truncating the MAC Address by removing the Organizationally unique identifier (the first 24 bits of the 48 bit MAC Address). [7] However, as only 0.1% of the total Organizationally unique identifier space has been allocated and not all manufacturers fully utilise their allocated MAC Address space, this ...

  5. MAC spoofing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MAC_spoofing

    MAC spoofing is a technique for changing a factory-assigned Media Access Control (MAC) address of a network interface on a networked device. The MAC address that is hard-coded on a network interface controller (NIC) cannot be changed. However, many drivers allow the MAC address to be changed. Additionally, there are tools which can make an ...

  6. Broadcast address - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Broadcast_address

    A broadcast address is a network address used to transmit to all devices connected to a multiple-access communications network. A message sent to a broadcast address may be received by all network-attached hosts. In contrast, a multicast address is used to address a specific group of devices, and a unicast address is used to address a single ...

  7. Logical address - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logical_address

    The physical address of computer memory banks may be mapped to different logical addresses for various purposes. In a system supporting virtual memory, there may actually not be any physical memory mapped to a logical address until an access is attempted. The access triggers special functions of the operating system which reprogram the MMU to ...
