Re: scan based on mac address

["sara fink" <sara.fink () gmail com>]

The mac is on the local lan.
I have net-snmp installed and I also know the mac of the pc associated to
the router (from kismet).

I wondered about nmao -sP all-ips. In such a case for those who are on the
lan I will get the mac and ip?
