getmac:tldr:58ed5
The command "getmac" is a Windows command used to retrieve the Media Access Control (MAC) address of a network adapter (Ethernet, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, etc.) on a local or remote computer.
In this case, the command is using some command line parameters to specify additional information:
-
"/s ${hostname}" is used to specify the name or IP address of the remote computer from which you want to retrieve the MAC address. The "${hostname}" is a placeholder that would be replaced with the actual hostname or IP address of the remote computer.
-
"/u ${username}" is used to specify the username to use when connecting to the remote computer. The "${username}" is a placeholder that would be replaced with the actual username.
-
"/p ${password}" is used to specify the password associated with the username for authentication when connecting to the remote computer. The "${password}" is a placeholder that would be replaced with the actual password.
Combining all these parameters, the command is asking to retrieve the MAC address of a network adapter on the remote computer specified by '${hostname}', using the provided '${username}' and '${password}' for authentication.
