Allen Allen KiX Supporter Registered: 2003-04-19 Posts: 4572 Loc: USA	I finally took a few minutes to look at this... as it turned out, I have not changed the GetIPOption() function, but instead added some functionality to EnumNetworkConnections to now allow you to not only get the Connection Name, but also the associated MACAddress and/or the Network Adapter Name. Anyone willing to give this new code a shot on a remote computer? Comments? {Edit: Code Removed}

I believe this would be the code to test a remotepc...

Code:

 
$remotepc="ComputerName"
for each $nc in Enumnetworkconnections(3,$remotepc)
  $ConnectionName=split($nc,",")[0]
  $MACAddress=split($nc,",")[1]
  $AdapterName=split($nc,",")[2]
  if $ConnectionName="Local Area Connection"
    ? "    Connection Name:  " + $connectionname
    ? "         MACAddress:  " + $MACAddress
    ? "       Adapter Name:  " + $AdapterName
    ? "        Mac Address:  " + getipoptions("Macaddress",$remotepc,$macaddress)
    ? "     Static Address:  " + getipoptions("StaticIP",$remotepc,$macaddress)
    ? "       DHCP Enabled:  " + getipoptions("DHCPEnabled",$remotepc,$macaddress)
    ? "       IPaddress/SM:  " + getipoptions("IPAddress",$remotepc,$macaddress)
    ? "      IPaddress0/SM:  " + getipoptions("IPAddress0",$remotepc,$macaddress)
    ? "      IPaddress1/SM:  " + getipoptions("IPAddress1",$remotepc,$macaddress)
    ? "      IPaddress2/SM:  " + getipoptions("IPAddress2",$remotepc,$macaddress)
    ? "      IPaddress3/SM:  " + getipoptions("IPAddress3",$remotepc,$macaddress)
    ? "          DefaultGW:  " + getipoptions("DefaultGW",$remotepc,$macaddress)
    ? "        DNS Servers:  " + getipoptions("DNSServers",$remotepc,$macaddress)
    ? "       WINS Servers:  " + getipoptions("WINSServers",$remotepc,$macaddress)
    ? "          DNSSuffix:  " + getipoptions("DNSDomain",$remotepc,$macaddress)
    ? "   DNS Search Order:  " + getipoptions("DNSDomainSuffixSearchOrder",$remotepc,$macaddress)
    ? "        DHCP Server:  " + getipoptions("DHCPServer",$remotepc,$macaddress)
    ? "DHCP Lease Obtained:  " + getipoptions("DHCPLeaseObtained",$remotepc,$macaddress)
    ? " DHCP Lease Expires:  " + getipoptions("DHCPLeaseExpires",$remotepc,$macaddress)

Quote: if $ConnectionName="Local Area Connection" That is quite limiting for those of us that rename our connections. In my multi nic machines we rename all of the connections as to what the function they are performing ex: Primary, NLB, Cluster, iSCSI etc. Or am I just reading it incorrectly? _________________________ Today is the tomorrow you worried about yesterday.

LOL

This is all I get on a remote computer. All data is the data of my local NIC not the remote one.

Code:



    Connection Name:  Local Area Connection
         MACAddress:  00:11:11:27:68:F9
       Adapter Name:  Broadcom NetXtreme 57xx Gigabit Controller
        Mac Address:
     Static Address:
       DHCP Enabled:
       IPaddress/SM:
      IPaddress0/SM:
      IPaddress1/SM:
      IPaddress2/SM:
      IPaddress3/SM:
          DefaultGW:
        DNS Servers:
       WINS Servers:
          DNSSuffix:
   DNS Search Order:
        DHCP Server:
DHCP Lease Obtained:
 DHCP Lease Expires:

Using that logic, would it be possible to build an array from the enumnetworkconnections() that has all of the connections in it, and then spit out the information for each one? _________________________ Today is the tomorrow you worried about yesterday.

NTDOC NTDOC Administrator Registered: 2000-07-28 Posts: 11634 Loc: CA	Allen, The code works fine for me. Though as mentioned you can't assume the name of the NIC and use that, otherwise it may not be true and you will have no results. If the Admin knows the name(s) of his/her NICs then fine, otherwise maybe just show as an EXAMPLE in the UDF Header a method to remotely gather the names of the NICS. Then it's up to the Admin to script and get the information he/she wants. Testing against Glenn's code shows that his UDF NICINFO http://www.kixtart.org/ubbthreads/showflat.php?Cat=0&Number=150379 Is about .2 to .4 seconds faster running, but it does not return the MAC address. He could add the WMI code to get it, but then I'm sure speed wise both solutions would be similar in speed. The nice thing about Glenn's approach is that it does not require WMI - though that is less and less of an issue for most Administrators.

Allen,

As requested in your PM.
It now seems to work OK on a remote machine. Should I give it a go at my home system with the dual copper, BT, WiFi, Firewire connections also?

Results when ran against a remote pc:
Code:


    Connection Name:  Local Area Connection
         MACAddress:  00:07:E9:D2:80:FA

Allen Allen KiX Supporter Registered: 2003-04-19 Posts: 4572 Loc: USA	The only reason I included the connection name was for backward compatibility with my old UDF. I guess I kind of liked having the Name of the connection with the other properties too. But I guess we could change this thing around a bit and give it a differnet name if you like? _________________________ (... better days ahead)
