For JSS 8.x-- Has anyone already developed EA's to collect ethernet adapter MAC addresses?



I'm not convinced all my client and support staff are giving me this information so that I can add them to the removable address list.

Yeah, we have ones or both. As with anything, there are probably a half dozen ways this can be done, and there may be better ways, but these work for us



USB Ethernet



#!/bin/sh



USBMAC=$(networksetup -listallhardwareports | awk '/Hardware Port: USB Ethernet/{getline; getline; print $NF}')



if [[ "$USBMAC" == "" ]]; then

    echo "<result>N/A</result>"

else

    echo "<result>$USBmac</result>"

fi


Thunderbolt Ethernet



#!/bin/sh



TBMAC=$(networksetup -listallhardwareports | awk '/Hardware Port: Thunderbolt Ethernet/{getline; getline; print $NF}')



if [[ "$TBMAC" == "" ][; then

    echo "<result>N/A</result>"

else

    echo "<result>$TBMAC</result>"

fi

Any ideas how to do this on iPad with Belkin LAN + PoE adapter?
