Sometimes it is needed to see MAC (Media Access Control) address of the devices like computers, routers, LAN or some others. As such, all network cards, whether it’s of Ethernet NIC, Gigabit Ethernet NIC or wireless 802.11a/b/g/n WiFi or HiperLAN adapter, should have different MAC addresses, which also known as Ethernet Hardware Address (EHA) or adapter address.
If you provide incorrect password, the command would fail with the error message “ Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password.MAC address (Media Access Control address) is a quasi-unique identifier consists of a six byte number that attached to most network adapter card or network interface card (NIC). If you try this for a Linux machine you would get the error “ The RPC server is unavailable.”
Using getmac command we can retrieve the mac addresses of the machines running windows OS only. You will be prompted to enter the password and the command execution will take place after that. If you do not want to specify the password, you can skip /p parameter. Just run the command getmac to get the mac addresses. It works on XP, Vista, Windows 7, Server 2003 and Server 2008 operating systems.
Below are few examples on how to use this command. This can be used to get mac address for remote computers also. We can find mac address (physical address) of a computer using the command ‘ getmac‘.
