gw-mac

Source code: https://github.com/bagder/gw-mac

Who should test

If you have working IPv6 addresses in your Windows. Working as in you can communicate with other machines over it.

Clone and build

$ git clone https://github.com/bagder/gw-mac.git
$ cd gw-mac
$ nmake -f Makefile.nmake

Run

(now invoke the newly built tool)

$ netid-win.exe

What to expect?

When the tool works, it should just output information about:

  1. your IPv4 network's default gateway's mac address
  2. global IPv6 prefixes

The later part has been reported to crash, so if it does crash for you please invoke with a debugger and tell me which source line that causes the crash and possibly why it crashes there.
