Hi.

2
00:00:02,070 --> 00:00:08,970
In this lesson, we are going to understand that how you can spoof or change your Mac address of your

3
00:00:08,970 --> 00:00:09,570
system.

4
00:00:10,200 --> 00:00:11,970
So what is Mac address?

5
00:00:12,540 --> 00:00:15,150
Mac stands for Media Access Control.

6
00:00:15,660 --> 00:00:22,890
It is also known as a hardware address or a physical address or a bond address of your device.

7
00:00:23,460 --> 00:00:30,900
This address is engraved on your nick card, which is your network interface card.

8
00:00:33,220 --> 00:00:42,490
Your device can be identified based on the Mac address that what is or your device's maker etc..

9
00:00:43,570 --> 00:00:54,010
Now this Mac address is generally being sent to any website or any software or program that we use,

10
00:00:54,430 --> 00:01:02,200
which can use this specific Mac address to do some kind of snooping or identification.

11
00:01:03,010 --> 00:01:09,130
So in this lesson, we will see how you can change your Mac or ether address.

12
00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:14,350
So the first thing that we are going to do is make our wireless adapter down.

13
00:01:15,130 --> 00:01:17,650
Then we are going to change it.

14
00:01:17,650 --> 00:01:21,520
Mac address using our tool, which is Mac changer.

15
00:01:22,930 --> 00:01:27,130
Let's jump to the practical time and let's see how this can be done.

16
00:01:28,740 --> 00:01:38,010
So you can see currently I'm on my terminal and I'm going to write the first command which is if config

17
00:01:38,610 --> 00:01:46,620
you can see the adapter is w len zero, which is my wireless card and my ether address is one C and

18
00:01:46,620 --> 00:01:48,060
ends with E seven.

19
00:01:48,660 --> 00:01:52,350
Ether address is also called as the Mac address.

20
00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:56,520
This is the original Mac address of our device.

21
00:01:57,210 --> 00:01:59,190
Now we are going to change the Mac.

22
00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:08,370
As you can see here, the tool is mac changer hyphen h stands for help menu where we can see the help

23
00:02:08,370 --> 00:02:10,620
menu for all the options.

24
00:02:11,910 --> 00:02:14,620
Now we're going to change the Mac.

25
00:02:14,640 --> 00:02:20,580
Before doing that, we need to turn our adapter off or take it down.

26
00:02:21,150 --> 00:02:26,070
So we're going to use the command i f config w len zero down.

27
00:02:26,700 --> 00:02:29,370
Now you're going to change the MAC address.

28
00:02:29,460 --> 00:02:32,160
Let's say we give a random mac address.

29
00:02:32,550 --> 00:02:41,010
So the command would be mac changer hyphen r, which stands for random and the adapter which is the

30
00:02:41,010 --> 00:02:42,030
blue len zero.

31
00:02:42,630 --> 00:02:49,020
You can see the current Mac address and the new Mac address that has been given, which is a fake Mac

32
00:02:49,020 --> 00:02:49,650
address.

33
00:02:49,830 --> 00:02:56,970
This can also be verified by sending a request or a pin command to another system and capturing the

34
00:02:56,970 --> 00:02:58,380
traffic in Wireshark.

35
00:02:58,770 --> 00:03:05,880
You would be able to see the new Mac address is being sent to the next device and it cannot identify

36
00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:08,910
that the traffic is coming from which adapter.

37
00:03:10,530 --> 00:03:15,570
As we can see, we have confirmed the MAC address has changed of our adapter.

38
00:03:15,990 --> 00:03:23,460
Now let's go back and change it to the original ETA address on Mac address.

39
00:03:23,970 --> 00:03:30,300
So I'm going to take it down and I'm going to use the command hyphen P, which stands for Permanent

40
00:03:30,300 --> 00:03:31,080
Address.

41
00:03:31,650 --> 00:03:38,130
As you can see, we have changed the new Mac, which is exactly same as our permanent Mac, which can

42
00:03:38,130 --> 00:03:40,170
also be verified from here.

43
00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:45,310
So this way we can change our Mac address to a random address.

44
00:03:45,330 --> 00:03:49,860
You can also specify any specific address that you want.

45
00:03:50,770 --> 00:03:58,630
And we also saw how to return back to our original address using the command match changer hyphen P,

46
00:03:58,630 --> 00:04:03,370
which stands for permanent and the adapter name, which is the Blue Line zero.

47
00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:06,160
I hope you guys understood this.

48
00:04:06,190 --> 00:04:07,000
Thank you.
