For example in an ethernet where all hosts share a common broadcast link for each host to have access to the link there is Medium Access Control like the CSMA/CD protocol.

Also any communications hardware device(Computer NIC, bluetooth adaptor, mobile phone, etc) has a “MAC address”. How is this ‘MAC address’ related to the above mentioned Access Control?
