---------------------------------------- Bug #3703: facter may not report the correct macaddress on multi port Macs https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/3703 Author: Allan Marcus Status: Closed Priority: High Assignee: Rein Henrichs Category: library Target version: 1.6.0 Keywords: Branch: ticket/master/3703-macaddress-on-mac The macaddress.rb code for facter under darwin doesn't take into account multi port macs. the ipaddress.rb code does. I copied the code from ipaddress.rb to macaddress.rb and it works. I also propose changing the check for 10baseT to determine if there is an enternet address to "ether". I'm not set up to submit code changes, so I will include the proposed code here. I appreciate your help. This is proposed code for facter/macaddress.rb for the darwin section. Facter.add(:macaddress) do confine :kernel => :darwin setcode do ether = nil ip = nil iface = "" output = %x{/usr/sbin/netstat -rn} if output =~ /^default\s*\S*\s*\S*\s*\S*\s*\S*\s*(\S*).*/ iface = $1 else warn "Could not find a default route. Using first non-loopback interface" end if(iface != "") output = %x{/sbin/ifconfig #{iface}} else output = %x{/sbin/ifconfig} end output.split(/^\S/).each do |str| if str =~ /ether/ # we have an ethernet address on this interface str =~ /ether (\w\w:\w\w:\w\w:\w\w:\w\w:\w\w)/ ether = $1 end end ether end end -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
