find mac address by mac

Hello evrybody

Sorry for posting here, but I can't post in the good section (if someone can move my post it could be great)...

Find mac address with IP who never dream about that ?

I dev a script to get all the mac address of the local network devices, because the only program I try and work

was mac scanner and costing 100$

So I make a script that you configure with a configuration.ini file where you put a start ip and a stop ip for exemple 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.254 (only last number can vary) and if you want a mac filter to get only certain mac address (the tree first number of mac address represente a constructor)

And then you lunch the script... and after massive ping... Wonderfull... you get all the info in a new file

exemple

configuration.ini

####################################
#######ALWAYS RESPECT SYNTHAX#######
###############NO SPACE#############
####################################
[IP_RANGE]
start:xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
stop:xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

[filter]
mac_filter:xx-xx-xx(part or entire mac)

So I give here the source and a configuration.ini sample file (sorry source comments are in french)

If you have question, and I don't answer here, don't hesitate to use my email

You started using arrays, but then don't have For/Next loops to utilize them. Take this part of your code for example:

$PID[0]   = Run("ping -n 2 "&$ip&$ip_start_array[4])
$PID[1]   = Run("ping -n 2 "&$ip&$ip_start_array[4]+1)
$PID[2]   = Run("ping -n 2 "&$ip&$ip_start_array[4]+2)
$PID[3]   = Run("ping -n 2 "&$ip&$ip_start_array[4]+3)
$PID[4]   = Run("ping -n 2 "&$ip&$ip_start_array[4]+4)
$PID[5]   = Run("ping -n 2 "&$ip&$ip_start_array[4]+5)
$PID[6]   = Run("ping -n 2 "&$ip&$ip_start_array[4]+6)
$PID[7]   = Run("ping -n 2 "&$ip&$ip_start_array[4]+7)
$PID[8]   = Run("ping -n 2 "&$ip&$ip_start_array[4]+8)
$PID[9]   = Run("ping -n 2 "&$ip&$ip_start_array[4]+9)

Shouldn't that just be:

For $p = 0 To 9
    $PID[$p] = Run("ping -n 2 " & $ip & $ip_start_array[4] + $p)
Next

I'll watch this... but i'm not sure to really understand.

If I lunch the 10 first ping its only to intialized... but but now you say it... it's not very usefull

I'll probably upgrade it soon to add ip filtering or to add some other little stuff

Thank you for your comment

It's a nice script. I'd recommend to use the long form of the ip's and preform the loop, look here

I not sure to understand how work you long IP, and I don't understand what i win to use this. making ping over ip class A, B, C without breaking my poor brain ?

I'll look carefully to your function.

But thanks for you congratulation, did you try it ?
