2. In the command prompt, enter ipconfig /all (Fig.7.2). Then press the
Enter key.
3. Write down the Physical Address as shown on your computer screen
(Figure 7.2); it is the MAC address for your Ethernet adapter. This will
appear as a series of letters and numbers. The MAC address/Physical
Address is what you will use for MAC Address Cloning or MAC Filtering.

The example in Figure 7.2 shows the IP address of your Ethernet adapter as
10.101.2.122. Your computer may show something different.

Note: The MAC address is also called the Physical Address.

When entering the information using the Router’s web-based utility, you
will type the 12-digit MAC address in this format, XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX
without the hyphens for MAC Filtering (Fig.3.17) on MAC Adress Cloning
(Fig.3.9).
