Parsing MAC address field in Windows 10
I have searched a lot and not found anything, and am driving myself crazy trying to do something that seems so simple. I am admittedly really bad with Java Regex, so that is my first issue...but moving on...
I am trying to get the active MAC address to populate within Zabbix 3.4.0
I'm running Windows 10 Pro so the Zabbix Agent key:
system.hw.macaddr[<interface>,<format>]
doesn't work. I have worked out to do this so far, but it gives me a string with 2 fields.
system.run[getmac /s {IPADDRESS} /nh]
This will give an output like this to Zabbix:
34-FF-FF-00-00-00 \Device\Tcpip_{0316FFFF-D435-4354-3986-7DEFD6AB1400}
all I want is the MAC address and not the \Device\....etc. info. In linux this is a .5 second 'awk' or 'cut' or 'grep' or 50 other tools. But I can't seem to work out how to do this.. This is needed for about 10 other items I have had to custom make. So the info would carry to other headaches of mine. If there is a better way to do this I'm all ears.
