I have been handicapped by the GUI and always seem to ask of help when it comes to the command line.
On Mac OS X only I need a command line to get the mac address of the wifi currently in use.
Help!

In the Command Prompt window, type ipconfig /all and press Enter. Under the Ethernet Adapter Local Area Connection section, look for the "Physical Address". This is your MAC Address.
The shell is the command-line interpreter, or language, that will process the commands of the script. Historically, the default shell for macOS was bash. But with the introduction of macOS Catalina Apple changed the default to zsh (zshell).
Linux. Open a terminal and use the ifconfig command. The MAC address will be listed next to HWaddr.
ifconfig en1 gets the interface details for wifi, the mac is on a line starting with ether, and is the second word on that line so:
ifconfig en1 | awk '/ether/{print $2}' If you love us? You can donate to us via Paypal or buy me a coffee so we can maintain and grow! Thank you!
