Best answer 19 votes 19 votes Answer :IP Address The MAC or Ethernet address is associated with Layer 2 which is Data Link Layer of the OSI Model. The logical address is a 32-bit IP address (on iPv4 and 128 bits on iPv6) that is not embedded in the network card but it is assigned to it for the purpose of routing between networks. shekhar chauhan answered Jun 10, 2016 • selected Jun 11, 2016 by Arjun shekhar chauhan comment Share Follow See all 0 reply Please log in or register to add a comment.
