Hello,

I would like to know if it's possible to use the {mac} variable in the local WAPT console configuration for arguments from external tools?
This would allow me to use the MAC address in the same way I can use {ip} for the machine's IP address.

Thank you in advance.

Actually, it's not {ip} but double mustaches {{ ip }}
Everything in the columns (between parentheses) can be used like this

The easiest way is to go to the "hardware inventory" tab, in the property tree, find the desired property and in the right-click context menu, choose "copy property path"

Code: Select all

{{ host_networking.mac.0 }}
Then you can insert this into your external tools
