Quizplus · Accepted Answer

MAC (Media Access Control) addresses are unique identifiers assigned to network interface controllers (NICs) for use as a network address in communications within a network segment. They are also sometimes referred to as electronic serial numbers or hardware addresses. HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol) is a protocol used for transferring data over the internet, while DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is a network management protocol used to assign IP (Internet Protocol) addresses to devices on a network. Therefore, neither A, B, nor C are appropriate choices.
