Method for MAC address acquisition in a network client device, the method comprising the steps of: generating (202) a client device (101) identifier using a method that makes it a substantially unique identifier; joining (203) a predefined multicast group at a given address; receiving (204), using the predefined multicast group address, an assignment record (130) comprising at least one MAC address associated with a client device (101) identifier; determining (205) whether the client device (101) identifier is present in the assignment record (130); assigning (207), to the client device (101), the MAC address associated with the client device (101) identifier by means of the received assignment record (130). |
