Extension attribute for displaying a Mac's active IP addresses

Nice. Kind of similar to this discussion from last year except that it was for a Self Service policy, not an EA.

I got some inspiration from that thread, but I didn't want to limit the output to the handful of port names that were specified in those scripts.

If Apple comes out with something called "USB-C Ethernet Adapter," I'd like to think my EA will continue working as-is. (Fingers crossed.)

Hey elliot, that's really nice! I have a similar script, but it's not quite as flexible as yours. One other thing- I don't know if you wanted to capture them, but the extension attribute isn't reporting my VPN address. It looks like the DEVICE_PORTS array awk command is the culprit. The flags on the VPN connection are UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,MULTICAST, so that awk is filtering them out.

I've used a loop like this in the past to grab the VPN IP's as well:

for i in $(ifconfig -a | grep "^utun*" | cut -d ":" -f 1); do
    Ifconfig_result=`ifconfig | grep -A2 "$i"`
    IP=`echo "$Ifconfig_result" | awk '/inet / && $2 != "127.0.0.1"{print $2}'`
    echo "Network port $i has IP address $IP"
done

@nkalister Good catch! I've updated the script to catch ppp0 and other VPN ports. Since they're not listed in networksetup -listallhardwareports, I just gave them the name "Other." Would love help fixing that if anybody has ideas.

This is something I made last September. Here are some examples of how it will print the result:

1 active IP

<result>1(en0:"USB Ethernet":192.168.0.10:DHCP)</result>

2 active IPs

<result>2(en0:"USB Ethernet":192.168.0.10:DHCP)(en1:"Wi-Fi":192.168.0.99:DHCP)</result>

Zero active IPs

<result>0</result>

Enjoy!
