I was looking for link layer addresses. Maybe i should have mentioned that in the subject line before. Maybe 'ip link' is what i am looking for. I just glanced at the code. So does ioctl(s, SIOCGIFINDEX, &ifr) get the list of all interfaces ??? Let me rephrase my requirement. I should be able to get the link-layer address of an interface by specifying the interface name ie. eth0, eth1 etc. (mac address for ethernet) And this interface might not have an ip address when i do this.
