Detailed explanation-1: -Broadcast address. The address a NIC attaches to a frame when it wants every other NIC on the network to read it. In TCP/IP, the general broadcast address is 255.255.
Detailed explanation-2: -A NIC provides a computer with a dedicated, full-time connection to a network. It implements the physical layer circuitry necessary for communicating with a data link layer standard, such as Ethernet or Wi-Fi. Each card represents a device and can prepare, transmit and control the flow of data on the network.
Detailed explanation-3: -A broadcast Ethernet frame will have the broadcast MAC address in the destination address field of the Ethernet header. The broadcast MAC address is FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF. A frame with this destination address will be sent to all hosts within a particular network segment/broadcast domain.
Detailed explanation-4: -In promiscuous mode, the NIC allows all frames through, so even frames intended for other machines or network devices can be read. But, in non-promiscuous mode, when the NIC receives a frame, it drops it unless it is addressed to its specific media access control address or is a broadcast or multicast addressed frame.
