For some network configuration tasks, you may be asked to provide the MAC address of a so-called network adapter. A media access control (MAC address) address is a specific network adapter that can be used to uniquely identify a computer on a network. This document describes how to obtain the MAC address of a network adapter installed on your computer.

Follow these steps to obtain the MAC address:

1. Press the Windows key and R key to open the run window.

2. Enter cmd and click OK.

3. After the cmd window opens, enter ipconfig /all and press Enter.

4. The MAC address will be displayed as a physical address, it will look like 00-00-00-00-00-00, and the characters can be numbers, 0 to 9, or letters, A to F.

Note: Each network adapter has a physical address. If there are multiple network adapters in a system, multiple physical addresses will appear.
