Network Information - IP and MAC addresses

(imported topic written by MattBoyd)

I was looking for an easier way to report on the IP address and associated MAC address. I’m a bit surprised that the Network Information (Mac OS X) has the IP addresses and MAC Addresses, but the Network Information (Windows) analysis does not. Is there a reason for this information was left out of the Windows analysis?

What’s the best way to get a paired listing of IP addresses and MAC addresses in Web Reports? It appears that the “network adapter” inspector is not defined even though “ip address” is.

Hey Boyd,

I don’t think there is a good reason that we don’t include mac address in this analysis… But you can easily make a custom property to get it (And I believe the mac address is included in one of the power management properties):

q: (mac address of it, address of it) of adapters of network
A: 00-1a-6b-1d-b6-87, 0.0.0.0
A: 00-19-d2-7a-f9-bc, 0.0.0.0
A: 00-18-8b-bd-ce-70, 192.168.104.223
A: 00-ff-68-1d-bb-85, 0.0.0.0

Thanks, I’ll go ahead and make the custom property so that these results are included. It would be great if they were in the Network Information analysis sometime in the future though :slight_smile:
