301    Asked by AndreaBailey in Cyber Security , Asked on Mar 2, 2022

 I have an IP address of a computer which I am currently away from, and I need the MAC address. How do I get the MAC address if I only have the IP?

If you are on the same network you can open up a Terminal to get Mac address from IP - ping your_ip_address hit Ctrl-C on the keyboard to stop pinging then do a: arp -a a list should appear, look for the ip you just pinged and next to it is the MAC address of the device.
