The first three bytes of the Ethernet Address are fixed and read 00-20-4A, identifying the unit as a Lantronix product. The fourth, fifth, and sixth bytes are unique numbers assigned to each unit. 00-20-4A-21-18-17 or 00:20:4A:21:18:17 2.1.2 Internet Protocol (IP) Address Every device connected to an IP network must have a unique IP address.
