As a developer, sometimes you need to obtain about the network adapters and network config of your local machine..... so i created a simple code snippets that might help somebody!!!
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Net;
using System.Net.NetworkInformation;
namespace LanInterface
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
// as shown above we used System.Net.NetworkInformation namespace so could use some of its classes
//lets check for network availability
bool bolNetworkAvailable = NetworkInterface.GetIsNetworkAvailable();
try
{
if (bolNetworkAvailable)
{
//lets get all of the Network Interface for the current machine
NetworkInterface[] interfaces = NetworkInterface.GetAllNetworkInterfaces();
foreach (NetworkInterface ints in interfaces)
{
// lets output to the screen some of the basic information!
//lets only focus on Ethernet type only for simplicity
if (ints.NetworkInterfaceType == NetworkInterfaceType.Ethernet)
{
Console.WriteLine("Network ID: {0}", ints.Id);
Console.WriteLine("Network Name: {0}", ints.Name);
Console.WriteLine("Network Type: {0}", ints.NetworkInterfaceType);
Console.WriteLine("Network Description: {0}", ints.Description);
Console.WriteLine("Network Status: {0}", ints.OperationalStatus);
Console.WriteLine("Network Speed: {0}", ints.Speed);
//lets get the physical address
Console.WriteLine("Network MAC Address {0}", ints.GetPhysicalAddress().ToString());
//lets get the network statistics
Console.WriteLine("Bytes Send: {0}", ints.GetIPv4Statistics().BytesSent);
Console.WriteLine("Bytes Received: {0}", ints.GetIPv4Statistics().BytesReceived);
Console.WriteLine("\r\n");
}
}
}
else
{
Console.WriteLine("NIC or LAN not available");
}
}
catch (NetworkInformationException ex)
{
Console.WriteLine(ex.Message);
}
Console.ReadLine();
}
}
}
