  <title>MAC アドレスとは</title>

  <p><em>MAC アドレス</em>とは、メーカーによってネットワークハードウェア (ワイヤレスカード、Ethernet カードなど) に割り当てられる固有識別子になります。MAC は <em>Media Access Control</em> の略です。各識別子はデバイスに対して固有となります。</p>

  <p>MAC アドレスは 2 つの文字を 1 セットとして、6 つの文字セットをコロンで区切ったものになります。たとえば、<code>00:1B:44:11:3A:B7</code> などのようになります。</p>

  <p>自分のネットワークハードウェアの MAC アドレスを識別する:</p>

  <steps>
    <item>
      <p>Open the <gui xref="shell-introduction#activities">Activities</gui> overview and
      start typing <gui>Network</gui>.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p><gui>ネットワーク</gui>を選択して設定パネルを開きます。</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Choose which device, <gui>Wi-Fi</gui> or <gui>Wired</gui>, from
      the left pane.</p>
      <p>The MAC address for the wired device will be displayed as the
      <gui>Hardware Address</gui> on the right.</p>
      
      <p>Click the
      <media its:translate="no" type="image" src="figures/emblem-system-symbolic.svg"><span its:translate="yes">settings</span></media>
      button to see the MAC address for the wireless device displayed as the
      <gui>Hardware Address</gui> in the <gui>Details</gui> panel.</p>
    </item>
  </steps>

  <p>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.</p>
