asterisk users - Mar 2012 - Getting Mac Address on connected IP phones

I am struggling to get the mac-addresses of IP phones that are connected
to asterisk as the phone are in different VLAN with * and they were
manually configured. I want to centralize their configuration using
res_phoneprov or tftp

I have tried nmap and arp in vain.

Any idea?

Sam

Ping the phones, then run arp.

Your router knows the MAC addresses of the phones. So does your DHCP server, if
they are using DHCP.
