Definition
Important
Some information relates to prerelease product that may be substantially modified before it’s released. Microsoft makes no warranties, express or implied, with respect to the information provided here.
Initializes a new instance of the PhysicalAddress class.
public:
PhysicalAddress(cli::array <System::Byte> ^ address);public PhysicalAddress(byte[] address);new System.Net.NetworkInformation.PhysicalAddress : byte[] -> System.Net.NetworkInformation.PhysicalAddressPublic Sub New (address As Byte())Parameters
Examples
The following code example creates a new PhysicalAddress object.
public static PhysicalAddress[]? StoreNetworkInterfaceAddresses()
{
IPGlobalProperties computerProperties = IPGlobalProperties.GetIPGlobalProperties();
NetworkInterface[] nics = NetworkInterface.GetAllNetworkInterfaces();
if (nics == null || nics.Length < 1)
{
Console.WriteLine(" No network interfaces found.");
return null;
}
PhysicalAddress[] addresses = new PhysicalAddress[nics.Length];
int i = 0;
foreach (NetworkInterface adapter in nics)
{
IPInterfaceProperties properties = adapter.GetIPProperties();
PhysicalAddress address = adapter.GetPhysicalAddress();
byte[] bytes = address.GetAddressBytes();
PhysicalAddress newAddress = new PhysicalAddress(bytes);
addresses[i++] = newAddress;
}
return addresses;
}
Remarks
In common scenarios, applications do not need to call this constructor; instances of this class are returned by the GetPhysicalAddress method.
Note that you can also use the Parse method to create a new instance of PhysicalAddress.
