• Make Unique MAC addresses for cloned library configurations

  I have a Setup / configuration library that has 2 models vm included.  How can I ensure that when users clone the configuration of the library of their workspace, it will give multiple users various MAC addresses for the NICs on those virtual machines?  Now when users clone the config from the library to the workspace, it errors out after 1 because they keep receiving the same Mac.

  The IP address and MAC to a library configuration does not change when you clone them to a workspace that they use network models.  Only a regular configuration will do it.

• Drive multimedia 12 have a unique Mac address. Mine does not work. Is it broken?

  I have problems streaming music to my Sony Home Theater System.

  Streaming in Windows media player 12 is on and I can see the Sony theater system in my network map but when I look at my Media Player properties, there is no IP or Mac address.  Is this normal?

  I have a second network computer (Vista) and I can access its music library and stream to the Sony system.  What is going on?

  Also the Sony identifies only my Vista computer as a server available.

  Ideas to solve the problem would be very appreciated.  Thanks in advance

  Good afternoon

  I'm really happy because I found a solution to my problem WMP/DNLA.
  It is then a home cinema DLNA see a computer on the network and Windows Media Player 'play to' gives the message: unable to extract information about the media on the media server.
  Where there are people who have always had the same problem, I suggest you follow the following instructions, that work but I don't know why.
  Select:
  1 Control Panel
  2 system and security
  3 administrative tools
  4 services
  Now in the list you must stop:
  1 WMP network sharing service
  2 Service UpNp device host
  Next reboot:
  1 Service UpNp device host
  2 WMP network sharing service

  The system now gives a try.  It worked for me.  My home theater can see my laptop Windows 7 and I can use the feature of "play to" WMP to push music for home theater.

  I found this solution after a lot of internet research, but I lost the link so I can't credit the author. But you know who you are.  Thank you.

• Access point WAP54G whose MAC addresses are the same

  I have 3-point WAP54G access that are connected together using wireless bridge settings found under the "AP Mode" in the menu.

  I would add a fourth unit, but as I am doing so I discovered that the 4th unit network MAC address is the same as that of the three already existing in my lan bridge WAP54Gs.   How can this be?  All units, aren't supposed to have unique MAC address of the factory.  I have triple checked to make sure that I am indeed two different units WAP54G.  Yes there is indeed to disting WAP54G units in my possession to what appears to be duplicate MAC addresses.  Then two units with double MAC addresees exsist on the same bridge LAN?  If this is not the case, is it possible to change one of the units, itg is not possible to return a device?  Thanks in advance for your help in this matter.

• Efficient P2V Mac address

  When I P2V a machine which determines the effective address of the Mac OS?  It is the one that the server had originally or is it the same as the initial MAC address?

  Each VM - without worrying that they are newly created or converted - will get a new unique MAC address in MAC range reserved for VMware to avoid problems with physical systems.

• MAC address auto PowerCLI / duplicate MAC

  We have a duplicate MAC address problem when we move to a server a server vCenter to another. Our method to move the server is to disconnect the server from the vCenter server and then attach it to the other server vCenter. For some reason, the MAC address reviews does not change when it is attached. I would assume vCenter regenerate an unique MAC address based on the unique ID of vCenter but apparently not. Then the old vCenter seems to affect the old MAC address again on the next guest created therefore create duplicate address.

  We try to automate the process of moving to a guest from vCenter for vCenter via PowerCLI. One of the hotfixes in the duplicate MAC addresses is to set it to manual and back to auto ( http://www.vmware.com/support/vsphere4/doc/vsp_esxi41_vc41_rel_notes.html )the problem comes when we want to set the MAC address of a MAC auto return manual. The setting of the MAC address manually is no problem, but we can not seem to figure out how to set the MAC address of return via PowerCLI. Anyone know of a solution?

  Thanks in advance for any help provided.

• How to get the MAC address of the virtual machine on which vmware tool is not installed

  Hello

  In our project, we communicate to vCenter/ESX and details of virtual machines using the VI - Java 4.0.0 SDK APIs

  I use PropertyCollector for details.

  But in the following cases

  1. a virtual machine is poweredOff.

  2 VMware tool is not installed on the virtual machine.

  I am not able to get the mac using the PropertyColector address.

  To get the macaddress property I use after crossing spec:

  rootFolder (folder)-> childEntity (data center)-> hostFolder (Folder)-> childEntity (ComputerResource)

  -> host (Hostsystem)-> vm-> guest (GuestInfo)-> net (GuestNicInfo)-> macaddress (in Virtualmachine)

  I know the vSphere client uses the VI SDK to perform all operations, and I am able to see the macAddress of VirtualMachine in cases using vSphere client.

  Is any body please help me get the macaddress of VM in the two cases.

  Thank you

  Take a look at the dashboard feature of the virtual machine and specifically "VirtualEthernetCard": http://www.vmware.com/support/developer/vc-sdk/visdk400pubs/ReferenceGuide/vim.vm.device.VirtualEthernetCard.html

  When you assign a new vNIC to each virtual machine, a unique MAC address generated is given by default. If you still want to map the actual interface of the guestOS, then you would take a look at guestInfo as you may have noticed IF you have the VMware Tools. Although the default is whence the MAC address

• Combination WRT1900AC Mac-addresses

  I have several computers on my network with 2 Apple TV. I recently got the WRT1900AC router to improve my network, but after a day or two on the Apple TV streaming was not possible. When you look through the creation, I noticed that for several computers mac address are placed in a single computer. Unable to find a way to separate the addresses from each other, I did a reset and it was fine. After 2 days, the problem appeared again. This could be the cause? Here is a picture of the addresses being combined.

  

  What version of Firmware is charged currently?
  Are what region you located?

  Router and wired Configurations
  Configuration DHCP reserved IP addresses for all devices ON the router. This ensures that each devices gets its own IP address when turned on and connected, eliminates conflicts of IP addresses and helps troubleshoot and maintain some consistency for applications that need to connect and mapped drives.
  Make sure that the devices are configured automatically obtain an IP address.

  Several MAC addresses reflect the WiFi and LAN adapters that are installed on the devices. However I think that only 2 MAC addresses should appear for your MacBook, WiFi and LAN however maybe BlueTooth is recognized. You can tesl cela by turning off the WiFI and BlueTooth on the MBP, leaving temporarily connected LAN and see what happens.

• Router seems several MAC addresses

  My WRT54G MAC address of the router (as written on the label on the bottom) ends with F5. LELA shows the address MAC LAN like ending by F5. It shows the addrerss WAN MAC as ending in F6. My ISP used the F6 key to connect to their network. I have a wireless internet radio which can detect the router as ending with F7.

  Why is this? How can I know who is the 'real' MAC address?

  Each network on the router interface must have a unique MAC address... router has 3 logical network interfaces, you discovered... one is the WAN interface, which is also associated with the physical interface that connects to your ISP. Another is the LAN interface that is associated with the network which is jumpered to 4 LAN ports (which are interfaces on the switch that is built into the router), and the last of them is the wireless interface, which is connected to the adapter wireless physical built into the router. The router keeps track of where each device that is connected by using of these devices unique MAC addresses and sends traffic to the necessary interface based on his knowledge of the combinations of IP addresses and MAC addresses.

  'Real' address of the router can be one of three, according to the network from which you look at the router. It seems, based on your post, that Linksys has taken the MAC address of the LAN interface of the document as the 'router MAC address '. All three are 'real '... MAC addresses

• How to block a MAC address on my router?

  I need to know to block a MAC address on my router

  You must open 192.168.1.1 in a browser (such as Internet Explorer) [usually the user name and password are admin]. Then go to security settings (depending on the manufacturer, the user interface varies) where block you a particular MAC address, or allow only a specific MAC address (options vary for the manufacturer).

  If any additional support is required, you can contact the support of manufacturer of router for assistance.

• MAC addresses of all my network connection cards shown in the result of 'IPconfig', although respectable adapters are not connected

  Hello

  While I'm connected only using a wired connection to a router and not wireless, when I typed "IPconfig/all", I saw the MAC addresses are listed for all "

  

  However, when visiting the 'http://192.168.1.1/' router server, I found that the MAC address of the LAN adapter I connected to appears only.

  

  Hello

   
  Thanks for your post about Microsoft Community.
   
  To answer your question, I would like to inform you that any wireless card installed on the computer will show MAC address, even if the wireless adapter is not connected to the network. It by default provides the MAC address of any device attached or installed on the computer network.
   
  Hope the helps of information. Please come back incase of other issues.

• where can I find the mac address for Airport Extreme

  just bought a new Airport Extreme 802.11ac and I don't know here to find the MAC ADDRESS. Can someone tell me where to look. I have the model and serial number, but can not find the MAC ADDRESS.

  Is the AirPort Extreme, set up and operation right now... even if he could not have an Internet connection?

  If Yes... Open the AirPort on your Mac utility... (Finder > Applications > utilities > AirPort Utility)

  Hold down the option key on your Mac when you double-click on the image of the AirPort Extreme

  The next page will display a summary of the parameters

  The AirPort Extreme has done 3 different MAC addresses... Ethernet, WiFi 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz WiFi.   If your AirPort Extreme is connected to a modem by an Ethernet cable, then the Ethernet ID is the MAC address.

  If the AirPort Extreme has not set up yet at all...

  Open AirPort Utility as above, and then click the file menu in the upper left corner of the screen next to the Apple icon

  Click on configure the other

  For address, enter 10.0.1.1

  A password is normally not necessary, but if you are prompted for a password, use the word

  public

  Click OK, the settings summary page is displayed.  In most cases, given that the AirPort Extreme connects to a modem via an Ethernet connection, you want to use the Ethernet ID as the MAC address.

  If you are still experiencing difficulties, you have 90 days of support Apple phone. Call them and maybe they can explain why that should be a very simple task is so difficult.

• WLAN Access Denied for active MAC address in the ACL

  I have a pretty great list ACL (Access Control) and I've never had a problem with it in the past, but I just got a new laptop and same computer when I save the MAC address and reboot the router I always get the "WLAN Access Denied" error for access from your laptop.

  I did all the "sanity checks" to ensure that the password is correct and that other devices still work.

  I had the MAC address of the laptop the same way, I always have, I see the MAC address in the Logs in the access denied message and copy it from there, in the access list. I did it with more than 20 other devices successfully, I'm not sure what is different about this one MAC address... I confirm through ipconfig on the laptop that the MAC address I use is correct.

  When I turn off ACL, I can connect without any problem of the laptop.

  Any thoughts? I am very familiar with computers and you can do an advanced troubleshooting, I do not know infrastructure and networks of the stuff so I don't know where to start here.

  Any ideas on how I can fix this would be appreciated!

  You may have hit a limit of the ACL. A test, remove a device from your list and see if your laptop will connect. This would confirm if you have contributed the most to list ACL on the router...

• LaserJet MFP M477 cold Pro: MAC address for LajerJet Pro MFP M477 cold

  Could you please tell me where I can find the MAC address for LaserJet Pro MFP M477fnw?

  Hello Letitial

  The Mac address is simple to find 2 ways

  1. Go to the antenna wireless icon on the upper right of the screen and tap on it.
  2. Then press the Wifi network (On - Off) icon.
  3. Do scroll down and find the hardware address.

  That s how you get the Mac.

  The other way would be to print a configuration report and search for hardware addresses.

  • Drag the menu to the left
  • tap Setup
  • tap reports
  • Select configuration report.

    I hope this helps you!
