Network adapter value in UNIX boxes

1

Hi,
we are working in developing properties to bring values for search elements,
Adapter Type
Network Adapter Manufacturer
Processor Model etc.

we are able to bring results for the above in Windows box using WMI. since WMI is not part of Unix environment we are not able to pull values from UNIX machine for the above.

when searched in google it was said like NMI can be used in UNIX machine to pull values.at this point we are of no success in developing code.Any help is much appreciated.

This is the code we are trying to exhibit

string values of selects “Manufacturer from NetworkAdapter” of nmi
string values of selects “AdapterType from NetworkAdapter” of nmi

Your best option is likely to run something on the command line to get this info, output the results to a file, then read in the results from that file into an analysis property.

I don’t know anything about NMI, but I’m not sure BigFix has an NMI inspector, and even if it does, it is likely that it doesn’t have the same syntax and query as WMI.
