Finding MAC addresses of all devices in LAN

Finding MAC addresses of all devices in LAN

As simple my last creation How to share a directory using nfs my todays creation How to find MAC addresses of all devices in LAN is also very usefull and simple. Actually its just a sharing ;)

Recently I had to find mac addresses of all servers in the local area network (LAN) for preseeding Debian installations using PXE (I will soon write about it). Finding them is easy with nmap

I used the following command and I had the mac addresses along with their associated IPs of all devices in the LAN. To find mac addresses, nmap must be run as root

nmap -sP 192.168.2.*
