Using NID names
How to find the MAC address
NID naming and security
The basic approach to using NID names is as
follows:
1
Ascertain the MAC addresses of the cards to
which you want to assign NID names.
2
Assign the NID names, thereby updating the
NID name table.
3
If necessary, restrict network access to
stations listed in the NID name table.
The MAC address for an adapter card is not
normally visible to a user. Also note that the
MAC address is not related to the IP address of

•
View MAC addresses for all currently active
