Extraction MAC address from remote node JN-5169

[fedyabogapov]

Hello! I'm working with JN-5169 ZBPro Stack, and I have a question.

Is it possible to extract MAC address of remote node when its node tries to discover local node's MAC address with ZPS_eAplZdpIEEEAddrRequest() function? I have found only processing of response on this function. Thanks in advance!

Hi Fedir, I hope you're doing well!

It's possible to get the MAC address back, however, depending on the specific scenario you're trying to manage. If you're trying to get the MAC address of an End Device, it would be best to, instead of using a ZPS_eAplZdpIEEEAddrRequest(), send an LQI_request to its parent router, so you can get both the Short address and MAC address values of the End Device.

Otherwise, if you want the MAC address for a router, then the ZPS_eAplZdpIEEEAddrRequest should work just fine.

Please let me know if you have any other questions.

Best regards,

Sebastian
