Components of a MAC address:
• 24-bit Organizational Unique Identifier (OUI):
- Identifies the manufacturer of the NIC card
- IEEE regulates the assignment of OUI numbers
- Includes broadcast or multicast bit, and locally-administered address bit
• 24-bit vendor-assigned end station address:
- Uniquely identifies the Ethernet hardware

• A LAN is a network that is located in a limited area.
• The components of a LAN are computers, interconnections, network
devices, and protocols.
• A LAN provides network users with communication and resource-
sharing functions.
• A LAN can be of various sizes to fit different requirements.
• Ethernet was originally developed in the 1970s by Digital Equipment
Corp. (DEC), Intel, and Xerox, and was called DIX Ethernet.
• Ethernet LAN standards specify cabling and signaling at both physical
and data link layers of the OSI model.
• Ethernet LANs manage the signals on a network by CSMA/CD, which is
an important aspect of Ethernet.
• The Ethernet frame contains header information, trailer information, and
the actual data.
• The MAC address is a 48-bit number usually represented in
hexadecimal format.
