Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

MAC addresses are stored in the ARP cache, which is a database that maps IP addresses to MAC addresses on a local network. This cache is maintained by the operating system and is used to optimize network traffic by allowing devices to quickly look up the MAC address of another device on the network. The MAC cache and Ethernet cache are similar concepts, but are not commonly used terms in networking. The NIC (network interface card) is the physical hardware component that allows a device to connect to a network, but does not store MAC addresses for future reference.
