Display MAC (media access control) address of connected access point.

Hi all! Sorry if this is already posted somewhere but I tried searching and was having difficulty because of the word MAC having multiple meanings here.
Anyways I want to be able to view the MAC (media access control) address of the access point I am connected to. Is this possible? I can't find it in System Preferences. Is there a terminal command that would allow me to see it? Any help would be MUCH appreciated. Thanks!

I'm looking at it right now. In the top portion, next to the active graph, it has the SSID of my access point. In the table beneath that, my access point is the first on the list, and the MAC address is clearly visible.
Second if I click on my access point in the list, the MAC address appears, temporarily at the bottom of the window.
For comparison, in the iStumbler preferences, on the AirPort tab, I have only "Auto-Select Best Network" & "Keep on Top" selected.

MAC (Media Access Control)Addreess, Network Card address.

Hi ,
Could you please tell me
how to read computer's MAC Address using Java programme.
its urgent !
Thanks
ramesh

You can get the mac address by running ipconfig in a
DOS prompt and parsing out the data.
//First run ipconfig
Process conf =
Runtime.getRuntime().exec("c:/windows/ipconfig.exe
/all");
// then parse out the response
DataInputStream ds = new
DataInputStream(conf.getInputStream());
while ((String lineItem = ds.readLine()) != null) {
// look for index of "Physical Address" and you have
e it
There is a lot more information returned here as well
you might find usefull.This solution seems platform specific. Do you have a solution that is more portable?

Which compliance regulation can be addressed by Access Controls

Most of us know the major compliance regulations imposed on publicly traded companies that can be addressed using SAP BusinessObjects Access Controls in USA. But, I want to know specifically which compliance regulations (Also sub sections, titles) that can be addressed with respect to different industries and verticals.
For example:
In case of Life Science Industry Access Controls can address the following compliance regulations (fully or partially), correct me if am wrong.
1. Sarbanes Oxley Act (Section 302, Section 404)
2. EU Directive 91/256 (EU GMP Guideline)
3. FDA's cGxp
4. Title 21 CFR Part 11
Is there any other regulation that can be Incorporated in this list, am I missing something.
P.S. Looking forwards to a productive discussion
Thanks & Regards,
Amol Bharti

Basel II is one which I can think of at once. This comes under the financial complance, which can be for the life sciences companies as well.
Hers's the link which can help you more on this. Please igonore if you are already done with this link.
[www.sap.com/lifesciences|www.sap.com/lifesciences.]
I do not think we would get a direct answer to this but there are pieces of information which can be collected - like from this forum post or google.

MAC address access control default?

I'm still using old graphite ABS, and all of them
are using MAC address access control.
Just by accident I connected a PB G4 with an
internal extreme Airport card.
The MAC address of this AirPort card wasn't in the
access list of the ABS.
It looks like ABS does only limit access through
MAC addresses for 802.11b cards. I'll spend some time
to double check this behaviour.
Did anyone already see this default of access
control?

I'm pretty well aware of the limitations of any kind of
MAC address control: in an hostile environment its a
"straw house" or an "empty extinguisher".
But in a collaborative and friendly environment I thought
it may be a useful "frontier marker" between "friendly" and
clearly "hostile" behaviors.
This belief was foolish.

MAC address and router access control

My iPhone 3GS can only access the network (through my Netgear KWGR614 wireless router) when the router's MAC address access control is off. When I turn it on the phone is blocked. The MAC address I use is taken from the iPhone settings. It begins with 64. All other MAC addresses I have ever seen begins with 00. Is this MAC address correct? If it is right, could it be that the router can't handle this address?

The first 3 bytes of the mac address identifies the manufacturer. For example, mine starts with 04:1e:64 which is Apple
04-1E-64 (hex) Apple, Inc
041E64 (base 16) Apple, Inc
1 Infinite Loop
Cupertino CA 95014
UNITED STATES
. if it starts with 64 then it belongs to
64-4F-74 (hex) LENUS Co., Ltd.
644F74 (base 16) LENUS Co., Ltd.
18-5 Gwacheon-Dong
Gwacheon Gyeonggi-Do 427-060
KOREA, REPUBLIC OF
check this list : http://standards.ieee.org/regauth/oui/index.shtml
enter your first 3 numbers (first 3 pairs) from your wifi (settings/general/about) (don't use colons in the search)
Not sure about the router as I never tried mac filtering. Each router will behave differently.
Hope this helps.

MAC address access control

Why does my airport express/time capsule show more wireless clients than I've authorized via the MAC address access control?

Sorry, but I have to re-awaken this old thread.
1. I recently purchased a new iPad.
2. With a) a hidden SSID, b) a MAC address-based access control list and c) a WPA2 secured network, I am assuming that no new device should be able to access my WiFi network.
3. When I got home with the new iPad on Friday evening, and started it, it was online without even asking me whether to connect, or what the WPA2 key was.
I find this strange.
Additional information:
4. I also have an iPhone 4S.
5. I used the personal hotspot feature of the iPhone 4S to connect the WiFi-only iPad to the Internet while on the road.
6. That personal hotspot feature was still enabled when I got home with the iPhone and the new iPad.
7. Home network setup:
7a) Fritz.Box 7270 as DSL modem/router (WiFi disabled)
7b) Apple Airport Extreme (v 7.6.4) connected via LAN to DSL router, (in bridge mode, create wireless network), Access control on this base station.
7c) Apple Airport Express (v 7.6.4) connecte to Airport Extreme via WiFi (extend wireless network), Access control not an option on this base station.
8. Native IPv6 enabled on all devices (and provided by ISP).
Any suggestion and help is highly appreciated.

Access Control makes connection intermittent. Why?

I've set up our Airport Extreme to limit the access of my daughter's ibook on weekdays, switching connection off every day at midnight. Her connection goes back on from 6am.
For some reason, when I try to connect again at about 9am, the Airport is only visible/available intermittently. It takes a good few minutes to appear and then it disappears again a few mins later. What's going on?
It's easily fixed. I just have to switch the Airport Extreme off at the plug and back on again, then it works perfectly again. But why is this necessary?
On the weekend - when there's been no access control of her computer the night before - there's no problem at all. Please hep

going off memory, if you set security protection I don't believe access control can be set with it. Its one or the other and I think that includes Mac addressing.
You can go online to Apple/support and do a search for how to set up airport networks. The rules are stated in that 60 page document.

The ASSERT condition was violated.
|
|What happened?
|
|
In the running application program, the ASSERT statement recognized a
|
|
situation that should not have occurred.
|
|
The runtime error was triggered for one of these reasons:
|
|
- For the checkpoint group specified with the ASSERT statement, the
|
|
activation mode is set to "abort".
|
|
- Via a system variant, the activation mode is globally set to "abort"
|
|
for checkpoint groups in this system.
|
|
- The activation mode is set to "abort" on program level.
|
|
- The ASSERT statement is not assigned to any checkpoint group.
|
|What can you do?
|
|
Note down which actions and inputs caused the error.
|
|
|
|
|
|
To process the problem further, contact you SAP system
|
|
administrator.

Hi Alberto,
The below Notes should resolve!

Hope this helps,
Luciana

After trying to set up access control, my Airport Utility is no longer able to find my Base Station. My PC still sees my wireless network but I can't connect to it.

A friend told me he was able to access my network from a different device with no password so I decided to set up an access control. Following the prompts, I entered my IP address, and then my Airport stopped working. I tried uninstalling it and reinstalling it, but got the same thing. The screen I get is that "Airport Utility was unable to find any Airport wireless devices", and askes me if I want to rescan. When I rescan I get the same message. My Airport light is green and my PC recognizes the network, my software just can't connect to it. A friend suggested I entered the wrong IP address (which I found on my computer under "connections", but even after I tried a different one which is supposed to be from the network, I still get the same error message. What am I doing wrong?

A friend told me he was able to access my network from a different device with no password so I decided to set up an access control.
This could be bullsh!t on your friend's part perhaps? Do you ever recall seeing a blue-light on the base station?
Following the prompts, I entered my IP address, and then my Airport stopped working.
The acces control list is where you put in your Mac Address, this is not the same thing as an IP.

What is better for security? WPA2 or Access control

I have a Airport express and 2 computers; a Mac and a PC.
When it come to securing your wi-fi connection so you don't get unauthorized clients on your network.
What is better
A- Just using encryption like WPA2 or some other password based system or
B- Just entering the "Airport ID" (MAC) of the computers I want to authorize in my network on the Access control panel.
Seems to me like the later is easier on the clients since they don't need a password or anything, It's completely transparent for the client. And I believe encryption slows down the connection a bit and create overhead for the computer. But maybe I don't have the full picture of the situation.
Is there anybody who can illuminated this subject for me?
thanks

WPA2 is virtually uncrackable only really vulnerable if you use a real word as a password.
When using access control, MAC addresses are sent unecrypted can be read and spoofed and therefore do not add any security.
Unfortunately "Closed" networks, MAC access control lists, and reduction in transmission power are all more "feel good" security rather than real security. All these various approaches are dated and mistakenly lead to overconfidence.
WPA is your friend if you value wireless security.

Access Control not working as expected after upgrade to 7.5.2

I have a Time Capsule set up with mac address access control on the main network plus a guest network. After the upgrade to 7.5.2, it seems that the access control is applying to my guest network and the main network is allowing all devices on it. Has anyone else seen anything like this and/or know what to do about it?

I am also seeing this behavior. The workaround is to add all the guest network devices to your ACL. But this is a regression - there isn't much point in having a guest network that requires updating the base station each time a new device joins.

Access controll Logs and DNS entries

Hello there,
We have upgraded from Border Manager 3.5 to Border Manager 3.8 SP4 on
new hardware. Everything runs fine except a little niggle. When we
view the Access Control logs now all we see is IP addresses there are
no host names. In real time monitoring we can click on DNS Host Name
and get some of the names but most come back Unknown. Under the logs
themselves the DNS host Name option is grayed out. Have I messed up
the configuration in some manner?

Thanks Craig, We are indeed runing the transparent proxy. Is this a
change between 3.5 and 3.8? When we ran the transparent Proxy under
3.5 we were able to see the URL's.
