For JDK1.6 or bigger:
import java.io.*; import java.net.*; import java.util.*; public class ListNetsEx { public static void main(String args[]) throws SocketException { Enumeration nets = NetworkInterface.getNetworkInterfaces(); for (NetworkInterface netint : Collections.list(nets)) displayInterfaceInformation(netint); } static void displayInterfaceInformation(NetworkInterface netint) throws SocketException { System.out.println("Display name: " + netint.getDisplayName()); System.out.println("Hardware address: " + Arrays.toString(netint.getHardwareAddress())); } }
JDK1.5 or less
One way, without using JNI, is to launch an external utility and interpret the output.
In Windows, “arp -a” will return the MAC addresses of all adapters that have TCP/IP bound to them and have recently (default < 5 mins) resolved an IP address. Otherwise, in NT/2K/XP, “ipconfig /all” will return all relevant network info for IP-bound adapters, including the MAC address (displayed as “physical address”).
In Linux, “ifconfig” does something similar.
Example for Windows:
import java.net.InetAddress; import java.io.InputStream; import java.io.BufferedInputStream; import java.io.IOException; import java.text.ParseException; import java.util.StringTokenizer; public final class NetworkUtils { private final static int MACADDR_LENGTH = 17; private final static String WIN_OSNAME = "Windows"; private final static String WIN_MACADDR_REG_EXP = "^[0-9A-F]{2}-[0-9A-F]{2}-[0-9A-F]{2}-[0-9A-F]{2}-[0-9A-F]{2}-[0-9A-F]{2}$"; private final static String WIN_MACADDR_EXEC = "ipconfig /all"; public final static String getMacAddress() throws IOException { String os = System.getProperty("os.name"); try { if (os.startsWith(WIN_OSNAME)) { return winMacAddress(winIpConfigCommand()); } // other OS left as an exercise ! // LINUX --> else if (os.startsWith("Linux")) { ... // ... // Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("ifconfig"); // MAC OSX --> else if(os.startsWith("Mac OS X")) { ... // ... // Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("ifconfig"); else { throw new IOException("OS not supported : " + os); } } catch(ParseException e) { e.printStackTrace(); throw new IOException(e.getMessage()); } } private final static String winMacAddress(String ipConfigOutput) throws ParseException { String localHost = null; try { localHost = InetAddress.getLocalHost().getHostAddress(); } catch(java.net.UnknownHostException ex) { ex.printStackTrace(); throw new ParseException(ex.getMessage(), 0); } StringTokenizer tokenizer = new StringTokenizer(ipConfigOutput, "\n"); String lastMacAddress = null; while(tokenizer.hasMoreTokens()) { String line = tokenizer.nextToken().trim(); // see if line contains IP address if (line.endsWith(localHost) && lastMacAddress != null) { return lastMacAddress; } // see if line contains MAC address int macAddressPosition = line.indexOf(":"); if(macAddressPosition <= 0) continue; String macAddressCandidate = line.substring(macAddressPosition + 1).trim(); if (winIsMacAddress(macAddressCandidate)) { lastMacAddress = macAddressCandidate; continue; } } ParseException ex = new ParseException ("cannot read MAC address from [" + ipConfigOutput + "]", 0); ex.printStackTrace(); throw ex; } private final static boolean winIsMacAddress(String macAddressCandidate) { if (macAddressCandidate.length() != MACADDR_LENGTH) return false; if (!macAddressCandidate.matches(WIN_MACADDR_REG_EXP)) return false; return true; } private final static String winIpConfigCommand() throws IOException { Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(WIN_MACADDR_EXEC); InputStream stdoutStream = new BufferedInputStream(p.getInputStream()); StringBuffer buffer= new StringBuffer(); for (;;) { int c = stdoutStream.read(); if (c == -1) break; buffer.append((char)c); } String outputText = buffer.toString(); stdoutStream.close(); return outputText; } public final static void main(String[] args) { try { System.out.println("MAC ADDRESS"); System.out.println(" OS : " + System.getProperty("os.name")); System.out.println(" IP/Localhost: " + InetAddress.getLocalHost().getHostAddress()); System.out.println(" MAC Address : " + getMacAddress()); } catch(Throwable t) { t.printStackTrace(); } } }
Done! Happy coding!
