Re: Obtaining a list of MAC address for interfaces without IP

Thanks for the pointer to RTNETLINK.

I understand how to use IFLA_ADDRESS and RTNETLINK to obtain the
hardware address of an interface. ioctl SIOCGIFHWADDR also seem to work
fine, but the interface isn't getting returned by ioctl SIOCGIFCONF and
I don't see how to use RTNETLINK to return a list of all interfaces. Am
I missing something? Someone suggested parsing /proc/net/dev but I'd
rather not do that.
