The MAC (or Machine Access Control) address is a unique value associated with a network adapter. So, MAC addresses are hardware addresses that uniquely identify a network adapter. MAC address is best thought of as kind of serial number assigned to every network adapter. No two devices shouldhave the same MAC address. Posted on April 29, 2016 at 08:21. MacOSX recognizes CDC(-ACM) devices (ie. Virtual COM port) without ANY extra driver. Just plug in the device. One thought on “ Install CP210x USB to UART Bridge VCP Driver on Mac OSX ” Matteo says: August 9, 2017 at 6:22 am Hi, I tried to follow the guide but at the last step i get this error: gas: gas$ brew cask install silicon-labs-vcp-driver Satisfying dependencies. The VCP driver emulates a standard PC serial port such that the USB device may be communicated with as a standard RS232 device. The D2XX driver allows direct access to a USB device via a DLL interface. The CP210x USB to UART Bridge Virtual COM Port (VCP) drivers are required for device operation as a Virtual COM Port to facilitate host communication with CP210x products. These devices can also interface to a host using the direct access driver.

MAC address works at the Data Link Control Layer of the OSI Model.
MAC addresses are most often assigned by the manufacturer of a network interface controller (NIC).
It may also be known as an Ethernet Hardware Address(EHA),Hardware Address or Physical Address.
After uploading the code open serial monitor and you will find MAC of your NodeMCU.
