Correct answer: D

A MAC address consists of six pairs of hexadecimal digits separated by colons or hyphens. For example, 01:A5:BB:A7:FF:60 is a valid MAC address because it has six groups of two hexadecimal characters. In contrast, IPv4 addresses use four decimal numbers separated by dots, and street addresses contain text.
