I'm using the latest build of Windows IoT for the Galileo Gen2 (9600.16384.x86fre.winblue_rtm_iotbuild.150309-0310_galileo_v2) and writing Wiring applications in VS2013Pro.

I want to start building network connections, but the first parameter I need to specify is the MAC address. The board came with a MAC printed on a sticker on the mag-jack, but did it get written to the onboard flash somewhere? Were do I find it from inside my Wiring/IoT app?

Ron,

You may try logging into the device via telnet and running 'getmac' or 'ipconfig /all'. This should give you the MAC address for your device.

  • I already know the MAC. I can see it on the sticker. I need my application to discover the MAC of whatever board it is on. For whatever reason, it has to be specified again when opening a port. – Ron Aug 27 '15 at 19:40
  • You may be able to determine this by invoking the commands above from System.Process in your application code and parsing the output. – Paul DeCarlo Aug 27 '15 at 20:31
