Can’t rely on the windows randomly generated IPV6 address. Therefore if I want to parse the WDS log files to identify each PC in the logs I need to construct the IPv 6 address using the EUI-64 method. This site explains, the Windows does not use the Mac address to generate the IPv6 LinkLocalAddress IPv6: How Windows generates Link-Local Addresses (EUI-64) – SID-500.COM. Announcement: We just launched math tools. Works with dot-separated hex IPs and hex numbers. Just paste your hex IP address in the form below, press the Convert to IP button, and youll get a dot-decimal IP. yet the IPv6 address are complete different.įe80::ba31:b5ff:fe30:e661:546 ( UEFI bios IPv6)įe80::6d8d:28d8:191b:3f30%3 (windows IPV6) Worlds simplest online hex to IP converter for web developers and programmers. We are talking about the same Ethernet device. The windows IPv6LinkLocalAddress value for that device is fe80::6d8d:28d8:191b:3f30%3 in this example the WDS server show a log entry such as : The WDS Bitlocker network unlock logs show the IPv6 Link local address of the physical device when the client PC is booting, and it the PC’s UEFI bios that send’s out the Network unlock request. I agree simple is better but in this case it does not work, The WDS logs are obtained in this manner $WDSEventsVerbose = Get-WinEvent -cn $WDS -EA silentlycontinue -FilterHashtable = (Get-Netadapter -CimSession $Script:RemoteCimSession | Where-Object įor remote systems just use PSRemoting as normal. I am parsing WDS network unlock logs and want to identify source computer. ![]() I got starting by getting the Mac I am interested in. Note the that IPV6 address obtained by the ipconfig / Get-NetIPAddress are not suitable for my needs, these address obfuscate the Mac address. prepend the link-local prefix: fe80::5074:f2ff:feb1:a87f.replace first octet with newly calculated one: 5074:f2ff:feb1:a87f.convert octet back to hexadecimal: 01010000 -> 50.convert the first octet from hexadecimal to binary: 52 -> 01010010. ![]() reformat to IPv6 notation 5274:f2ff:feb1:a87f.take the mac address: for example 52:74:f2:b1:a8:7f.basically doing this ( ref ) in powershell. Trying to convert a Mac address to an Ipv6 link-local address.
