This will open the boot folder of the microSD Card. It is drive (F) in my computer, but may be different letter in your computer. (3) Open Windows/Mac File explorer/File Manager and click on drive pertaining to microSD card. Plug card reader into your Windows/Mac Computer. (2) Slip-out microSD card from Pi, slip it in a card reader. The “ HWaddr” in the display represents the device’s MAC address.HOW TO SSH TO RPI - SET UP PUTTY IN WINDOWS (A) Enable SSH in Piįirst thing you have to do is to enable SSH in RPi.
TX packets:304 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 RX packets:336 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 Or from the command line you can simply use the following command : ifconfig eth0 Which you can display using cat /sys/class/net/eth0/address The MAC address is contained in the system info file /sys/class/net/eth0/address Its like a fingerprint in that its guaranteed that no other device will have the same MAC address as yours. MAC addresses are most often assigned by the manufacturer of a network interface controller (NIC) and are stored in its hardware, such as the card’s read-only memory or some other firmware mechanism. Some LANs are configured to allow access only for a white-listed devices by MAC address, so you’ll also need to know yours to be able to use such a LAN.Ī MAC address (media access control address) is a unique identifier used as a network address for most IEEE 802 network technologies, including Ethernet.
Then you can SSH into the same IP address each time to log into your RPi from your PC or Mac knowing it will always be there, without having to search for the RPi on the network. For instance, you want to find it among the list of devices attached to your LAN, because you want your router’s DHCP service to assign your RPi a permanently dedicated IP address instead of letting the DHCP just assign it the next available IP address each time you start it up. You sometimes need to find out the MAC address of your Raspberry Pi.
