Viewing MAC Address System 7.1

I am trying to connect my old Macintosh SE to my school's network. Because it's too old to run the registration program I need to retrieve and report it's Ethernet's MAC address. I went under the MacTCP control panel, but the MAC address wasn't listed. Is there a way I can retrieve the MAC address with System 7 or a 3rd party program?

I guess I was trying to acertain the root of the problem and identify the real task. I agree that 7.1 on a SE will run much faster than 7.5 for every day use. You did not indicate the end use of the computer.
Your information indicates that you are at Central Michigan University. Washington State University sold off their G3 DT models for #$5 a piece over a year ago. A recycler in Seattle sold me three loaded mini-towers for $15 apiece over a year ago. A school district gave me eight all-in-one G3s over the last year. Why do you want to run an SE on a network when G3s are being thrown away or sold at those prices?
You stated "I need to retrieve and report it's Ethernet's MAC address."
The link Niel provided reiterates the fact that "Every computer on an Ethernet network has a unique hardware address assigned by the manufacturer of the network interface. This address is not usually needed by the user, but it is used in many cases to automatically assign a "higher level" identity (such as the Internet address) to the Mac."
I guess I do not understand your end objective. Are you connecting for the exercise of it or does the SE provide something that a newer, $5 ethernet ready computer will not provide?

  • How to view MAC addresses on the network?

    I can log into other non-apple routers via browser and see a list of MAC addresses of equipment connected to the network, but I don't see how to view them if using my Airport Extreme and going in through Airport Utility.
    Any thoughts?

    If It's the same Mac that can see the PC, it's already set up correctly. Something must be wrong somewhere.

  • How do i find the internet MAC address for my MBP?

    I am trying to get my MBP integrated into my home wireless network.  Need to enter MAC address.

    System Preferences > Network, select the connection type (probably Wifi). Advanced button > hardware tab.
    The MAC address is listed there.
    MAC address filtering is not actually adding any security to a wifi network, so you may want to turn that off - it is trivial to spoof a MAC address & they are visible to anyone in range. Use WPA2 with a good password if you can.

  • MAC Address =ipv6?

    Hello. My system administrator needs the Media Access Control address for my PowerBook G4 so I can join their wireless network.
    When I checked the Apple documentation for how to find my Media Access Control (MAC) address (System Preferences>Network>Airport>TCP/IP), it seems to the long alpha-numeric series that that appears next to IPv6 Address. Is IPv6 the term Apple uses for MAC? Thanks.

    Hi--
    The MAC address is not the same as the IPv6 Address. The MAC address for Airport is actually what they call the "Airport ID". When you're looking at the Airport settings, you'll see 5 tabs: "AirPort", "TCP/IP", "PPoE", "AppleTalk", "Proxies". It's under the "AirPort" tab, the one to the left of "TCP/IP".

  • How to capture System MAC address On internet

    Hi,
    I am doing internet based application. I want to capture user system MAC address when ever user is logged in to my application over internet. So please tell me how i can capture users mac address. please help me.. with out this i cant i go further in my process. please help
    Regards,,

    I think you're out of luck--the IP packets that come to your web server don't contain the MAC address; that would only be available on the LAN where the NIC resided. All the other components of the Internet don't use the MAC address (that's actually what the "Inter" part means).
    I assume you're wanting to track unique users. You might try cookies or something of the like.
    Best of luck.

  • How to view logs of disabled MAC addresses?

    I have a Wireless LAN Controller 4402 and WCS 7.0, and I have a few MAC addresses that are "disabled" due to policy violations. How can I view a log or a report that will show me if these MAC addresses are still attempting to connect?

    if the clinet is excluded.. then the client will not be able to connect at all... if you want to see the Logs.. i guess we see that on the TRAP logs, if not then we need to run the debug..
    lemme know if this answered your question..

  • Viewing airport mac address

    I am setting up a school district for mac address authentication and would like to view and export the airport mac addresses with Apple Remote Desktop. The application already has a view option for the ethernet mac address so getting the airport mac address shouldn't be too difficult? Who knows a unix command I cann send to get the results I need? I have about 2K wireless devices in our district. Thanks...

  • User Control System based on MAC address?

    I wonder how can I make a user control system for my website based of visitor's computer's MAC addresses?
    Is it possible to get MAC address of visitors of my site in FLASH? If possible how?
    Thanks for reply in advance

    Not possible through flash player. You may advocate javascript approach and use it in combination with Flash.

  • How to find mac address of a client computer in specified time and port in WIFI WCS Control system

    how to find mac address of a client computer in specified time and port in WIFI WCS Control system

    WCS record-keeping is very crude.  
    You'll get the time/date when the client authenticated.  You'll get the local inside address but you'll need the router to translate the outside IP address and the port.  
    You will need a proxy server to determine what sites did a wireless client goes.

  • How do I find the MAC address of a CLIENT ACCESS POINT created from the FILE SERVICES ROLE

    I have several Client Access Points created within the clustered File Services Role.  The only way I seem to be able to determine the MAC address of each of these, is by visiting the DHCP server.
    Does anyone know if there is a way of reporting on this from the server (active node) itself?  I have tried ipconfig all, checked the properties of the CAP in the FCS console etc.
    Many thanks.

    Hi,
    As far as I know there have no original option for query all the CAP MAC address, may you can create a PowerShell command then filter the configuration result, you can ask
    in PowerShell forum for the further help.

  • 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.

  • Changing Mac Address/Static ip

    I recently bought an New iMac and Migrated everything over from my old mac.
    However I mistakingly migrated the Static IP address or MAC address from the old machine too!
    This is now giving me problems when trying to connect both machines to my network via Ethernet!
    My wireless access is fine, but ethernet is saying ‘no ethernet cable is inserted’ on both machines now. The cable is in and works fine on other machines.
    Do I need to change the MAC address on the machine?
    If so how?

    Hi
    System Preferences > Network > Select the interface > Advanced > TCP/IP. Have a look at both macs to see what they're using. Change one of them.
    You can't change a MAC address unless you know how to spoof it or if the NIC hardware has changed. The MAC address is not your macintosh IP address. In this instance MAC stands for Media Access Control. It's the unique ID number given to a network adapter. No two are the same, leastways they should not be. If you want to view both your macs MAC addresses. Apple Menu > About this Mac > More Info > Network. Select the interface you're interested in.

  • Network mac address not present in OS  yosemite

    HI, I have a 2012 retina MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Late 2013), 2.4 GHz Intel Core i5.
    I recently upgraded to Yosemite and can no longer see the mac address of my Apple usb ethernet adapter on the network setting on the system preferences application. Also, I can no longer see 'USB ethernet' in the network options. I only see thunderbolt bridge and thunderbolt bridge 2. Under thunderbolt bridge, i can see 'USB ethernet' as active but I can't see the mac address in the hardware tab. Anyone else have this problem?

    Well, the explanation makes sense but I don't think it is true.  I got to this thread because I have the same issue. I have hard wired my TC to my home network and set the Router mode in TC as Bridge Mode.  Some days when I use the Airport Utility to view the clients it will show clients' names and the next day it will show the Mac Address. So, I believe it is a software / firmware issue. 
    I have turned off the wifi on my main router and all the devices are being connected wirelessly through my Time Capsules.
