    Study Notes

    Layer 2 Physical Address (MAC Address) in Ethernet LAN

    • The MAC address is used to identify devices at the data link layer (Layer 2) of the OSI model in Ethernet LAN.

    MAC Address in Same-Network Communication

    • When the destination IP address is on the same network, the MAC address becomes the destination MAC address.

    MAC Address in Remote Network Communication

    • In the context of a remote network, the MAC address for communication with the default gateway becomes the default gateway's MAC address.

    Associating IPv6 Address with MAC Address

    • The protocol used to associate an IPv6 address of a device with its MAC address is Neighbor Discovery Protocol (NDP).
