Appendix A Configure Windows Network Communication Settings With Multiple Network Interfaces 87
▼ Confirm Physical Port MAC Addresses and
Match Them to Window Device Names
To confirm the MAC addresses of installed network interface ports and to match
them to the Windows Device Friendly Names, you will need to open a command
prompt and run ipconfig /all.
To open a Windows command prompt and run ipconfig /all follow these steps:
1. Click -> Start -> Run.
The Run dialog box appears.
2. In the Run dialog box, type cmd then click OK.
The cmd.exe DOS window appears.
3. In the cmd.exe DOS window, type ipconfig /all.
The output from the ipconfig /all command identifies the installed network
interface ports by the connection name in the order of enumeration.
Note – The output does not necessarily follow an alpha or numeric order. You can
customize the connection name in the Network Connections folder for details, see
Microsoft’s documentation. The output below illustrates how the Windows
operating system, by default, assigns logical names to network interfaces.
