• Hardware (MAC) Address: In a LAN environment each network interface
contains its own Medium Access Control (MAC) address which is the
embedded and unique hardware number.
• IP Address: This address tells the network how to locate the computers or
network equipment connected to it.
• Netmask: The netmask is a 4-byte number that masks the network part of the
Internet Protocol IP address, so only the host computer part of the address
remains.
• Mode: "Static" or "DHCP."
