HP Exam HPE6-A85 Topic 11 Question 40 Discussion

Actual exam question for HP's HPE6-A85 exam
Question #: 40
Topic #: 11
[All HPE6-A85 Questions]

Which statement is true for a device with a MAC address of B8-31-B5-80-41-4F?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

A MAC address is divided into two parts: the Organizationally Unique Identifier (OUI) and the Network Interface Controller (NIC) serial number. The OUI is the first three octets of the MAC address and is unique to the manufacturer. The NIC serial number is the last three octets and is unique to the device itself. Therefore, for the MAC address B8-31-B5-80-41-4F, the OUI is B8-31-B5, and the NIC serial number is 80-41-4F.

I'm not even going to bother with this question. I'm just going to stare at the MAC address and hope it magically tells me the answer. Maybe if I rub my eyes really hard, the solution will appear!

I think the answer is D because of the MD5 hash.

Ooh, Option D is trying to get sneaky with the MD5 hash, but that's not how MAC addresses are structured. Nice try, but I'm going with Option A.

Hah, Option C is just plain silly. The OUI can't be the last 3 bytes, that's not how MAC addresses work. Come on, people, let's use our brains here!

I'm pretty sure it's Option B. The OUI is the first 2 bytes, and the NIC serial number is the last 4 bytes. Easy peasy!

Option A is the correct answer. The OUI (Organizationally Unique Identifier) is the first 3 bytes of the MAC address, which in this case is B8-31-B5. The remaining 3 bytes represent the device's NIC serial number, which is 80-41-4F.
