Getting clients MAC address !!!

Is there any mechanism in Solaris where we can get the MAC address of an another system
Which is newly connected to the network (same subnet)
Situation is : a new system with out OS and its connected to the network, with out going to the console
of this system how to get the MAC address of it.
May be its possible may be not, anyway we are doing some testing and we have come across an issue.
Thank you.

If the system is set to boot from the network, which is the way that a lot of out-of-the-box Sun systems used to be (don't know if they still are), you could at least perform a rudimentary snoop of the network to see if there are any ARP/RARP requests that happen to appear when the system is turned on. You'll be able to see the resulting MAC address in the request. But, again, the system has to be set to boot from the network fr this to work.
Otherwise, I don't know of any way other than the console itself.

  • HT4061 I downloaded an iTunes update on my HP.  PC and restarted the computer for the hangers to take effect. Now my pc is locked up.  It gives me a client Mac address and no boot file name received.  What happened, and how do I get my pc back?

    When you installed iTunes on your work computer, then connected your iPad to that computer, it wiped what was on the iPad, then put the iTunes library (nothing) from the work computer onto the iPad. You can try copying the iTunes folder from your home computer over to your work computer, but since the apps were bought with a different account, they may not load or update properly.

  • Getting the MAC address of the machine

    Is there any method to get the MAC address of machine in java.?????????????
    In our proxy server application we get the IP address of each client connected our proxy server.
    But as the IP addresses are dynamic , we can't trace the location of the machine whenever any client does malicious downloads.

    Thanks It works .
    The code is as follows .
    It works when the machine is connected to internet while throws a null pointer exception when not connected .
    import java.net.InetAddress;
    import java.net.NetworkInterface;
    import java.net.SocketException;
    import java.net.UnknownHostException;
    public class MacAddress {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws SocketException, UnknownHostException {
    try {          
    InetAddress address = InetAddress.getLocalHost();
    * Get NetworkInterface for the current host and then read the
    * hardware address.
    NetworkInterface ni = NetworkInterface.getByInetAddress(address);
    byte[] mac = ni.getHardwareAddress();
    * Extract each array of mac address and convert it to hexa with the
    * following format 08-00-27-DC-4A-9E.
    for (int i = 0; i < mac.length; i++) {
    System.out.format("%02X%s", mac, (i < mac.length - 1) ? "-" : "");
    // System.out.print(mac);
    } catch (UnknownHostException e) {
    e.printStackTrace();     
    } catch (SocketException e) {
    e.printStackTrace();

  • How can I get the MAC address of my Apple TV?

    How can I get the MAC address of my Apple TV? I currently do not have an HDMI device to connect it to, and the MAC is not listed on the box or the Apple TV itself.
    (to answer the obvious, I am trying to pair it with an iPad, and I need to register the Apple TV for the network so the two can see each other)

    As long as I know java doesn't have support to work on link-layer, only internet and transport layers. You may write simple native code. On windows, IP Helper functions, like SendARP allow you to pass an IP address and get the hardware address. You store the hardware address on your database/file and later, when that machine is off, you send a frame to the address you stored previous.

    I haven't seen it on Linux, but if you need help let me know I'll check the Linux API's too.

    Hi Bruce,
    Out from what I can find on this network card is it not possible to get the mac address without a OS. I would recommend you to get/burn a Linux/Ubuntu live CD/DVD and run a Ifconfig in there.
    Hope it helps you.

  • Can I get the Mac address in Audit logs of Active directory server for the user's machine which connect to the network/Domain

    Hello All,
    I am trying to get the information of all the user's who connect to our Domain network by signing in using the domain account. For this I am using the Windows audit group policies ( I am not sure of there is any other way). I can see when the user tries
    to login to the network there is a audit event created on the AD/DC server. I can see the Kerberos authentication and logon/logoff events in the audit events under event viewer.  
              However the info which is being populated in these events include :- Hostname, IP address, Username and so on... But I can't see the MAC address of the user machine/system. Is there any way I can
    get the Mac address of the endpoint system as its one of the important criteria for our project.
    Any inputs on this would be appreciated, incase if there is any other way other than group policies please suggest.
    Thanks,
    Kavish

    If you use DHCP, you can query the DHCP server. There's no builtin
    method to get the MAC address directly.

  • How to get the MAC address of a PXI in a dll

    Hi,
    I am looking for a way to get the MAC address of a PXI RT controller. I know that there is a VI to do this, but I am looking for a solution for a dll (C-Code).
    I use the "Call library node" to call this dll and want to make sure that it is only used on a specific PXI.
    Since the VI provides the functionality, I am wondering if it is also available to be called from C-Code?
    Thank you,
    Christian

    If it is available in LabVIEW it is probably available in CVI, which you could then build into a DLL (if there isn't one available already).

  • Is there any possible ways to get the MAC address?

    Hi guys:
    I am writing servlets on the server side. Is there any possible ways to get the MAC address when a HTTP request come in? Thank you very much for any helps.
    all the best!

    It is usually impossible to get the MAC address of the maker of a HTTP request in any programming language or system.
    At best, you can get the MAC of the closest intervening router, firewall, whatever.
    Are you sure you mean the MAC address? MAC looks like this: 8:ab:f0:0:71:bb:90 (Ethernet), or 01-23-45-67-89-ab (Token Ring), etc, depending on your network type.
    In contrast, an IP address looks like this: 209.249.116.195. If you want the IP address, check out the javadoc for HttpServletRequest and ServletRequest. Caveat: load balancers, web caches, proxy servers, etc will mask the "true" peer's address. Don't do anything silly like try to use the IP address for security or authentication.

  • Get Hardware (Mac) Address through Applescript

    Hi All,
    How can I get Hardware (Mac) Address using applescript. Please tell me how can I do it. I have searched in the dictionary but I found nothing there.
    Why I need it, I have developed some tool for InDesign & Quark User. I want to add the mentioned module in my application, so that as user will run the tool it will first validate the Hardware address, and if it match then application will run otherwise it will show a piracy message.
    Thanks

    >get if addr en0 failed, (os/kern) failure
    Then you don't have an active interface. You can't use ipconfig to query an interface that isn't up.
    You need to decide how you want to deal with this - you won't know in advance what interfaces the user may have active. For this reason, relying on the MAC address is inherently problematic. You might be better off using the system's serial number (which is less likely to change anyway):
    <pre class=command>set serialNum to do shell script "system_profiler SPHardwareDataType| awk -F: '/Serial/ {print $2}'"</pre>
