system's Physical Address

[Former Member]

Hi,

If you go to command prompt, type IPCONFIG/all then you will get the physical address. Is it possible to know the same from SAP. Is there any FM or Class to get the same.

I got the IP Address using the class

CALL METHOD cl_gui_frontend_services=>get_ip_address

Thanks and Regards,

Prakash.

Check the below code:

REPORT ysample60 .

DATA : o_alvgrid TYPE REF TO cl_gui_frontend_services.

DATA: ip_address TYPE char50.

CALL METHOD cl_gui_frontend_services=>get_ip_address

RECEIVING

ip_address = ip_address

EXCEPTIONS

cntl_error = 1

error_no_gui = 2

not_supported_by_gui = 3

OTHERS = 4.

IF sy-subrc <> 0.

MESSAGE ID sy-msgid TYPE sy-msgty NUMBER sy-msgno

WITH sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.

ENDIF.

IF NOT ip_address IS INITIAL.

write i_address.

ENDIF.

============================================

Also you can try this

FM <b>ARFC_GET_TID</b>will return the IP address of the terminal in hex. Again you have convert HEx to dec format.

This FM <b>TERMINAL_ID_GET</b> directly provides IP address. Tested working fine.

Vivek,

Thanks for the effort.

But I don't want the IP Addess, I have already got that.

I want the <b>system's Physical address</b>.

Regards,

Prakash.

Hi,

This kind of information is highly dependent on the Operating System (I guess it is not the same for IP address ??)

Try creating an external command (say Y_MAC_ADDRESS) in <b>transaction SM69</b> based on this document and on your OS :

http://www-dcn.fnal.gov/DCG-Docs/mac/index.html

Then, run the <b>transaction SM49</b> with the new command.

To do it programmatically, use <b>FM 'SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE'</b> with the name of the external command (Y_MAC_ADDRESS) !

After some googling.. i found

A physical address is a unique hardware-level address associated with a specific network controller. A device's physical address is also called its Media Access Control (MAC) address. On Ethernet, the physical address is a six-byte hexadecimal number assigned by the Ethernet hardware manufacturer. For example:

0000D801CFF2

I dont think the same can be obtained from SAP. Also try to contact BASIS guys.

Operating system command and

Parameters for operating system commands

I just tried with Operating system command = ipconfig/all. But is not working.
