A LAN (local area network) MAC (Media Access Control) address is a unique identifier assigned to network interfaces (such as Ethernet cards or wireless cards) for communications on the physical network segment. It is also known as a physical address or hardware address. LAN MAC addresses are used to identify a device on a local area network, such as a home or office network.
