<title>What is a MAC address?</title>

A MAC address is the unique identifier that is assigned by the
 manufacturer to a piece of network hardware (like a wireless card or an
 ethernet card). MAC stands for Media Access Control, and each
 identifier is intended to be unique to a particular device.

A MAC address consists of six sets of two characters, each separated by a
 colon. <code>00:1B:44:11:3A:B7</code> is an example of a MAC address.

To identify the MAC address of your own network hardware:

<steps>
 <item>
 Open the <gui xref="shell-introduction#activities">Activities</gui> overview and
 start typing <gui>Network</gui>.
 </item>
 <item>
 Click on <gui>Network</gui> to open the panel.
 </item>
 <item>
 Choose which device, <gui>Wi-Fi</gui> or <gui>Wired</gui>, from
 the left pane.
 The MAC address for the wired device will be displayed as the
 <gui>Hardware Address</gui> on the right.
 
 Click the
 <media its:translate="no" type="image" src="figures/emblem-system-symbolic.svg">settings</media>
 button to see the MAC address for the wireless device displayed as the
 <gui>Hardware Address</gui> in the <gui>Details</gui> panel.
 </item>
 </steps>

In practice, you may need to modify or “spoof” a MAC address. For example,
 some internet service providers may require that a specific MAC address be
 used to access their service. If the network card stops working, and you need
 to swap a new card in, the service won’t work anymore. In such cases, you
 would need to spoof the MAC address.
