Event Logs (Mac Address)

[Guest Rob]

Can windows 2000/2003 log the source MAC forincoming connections?

 

If so I would assume this can be found in the security log but I can't

locate any mac addresses there. Is windows capable of doing this and if so

where or what policy would enable this?

 

Any assistance is greatly appreciated. Thanks -Rob

Hello,

 

i don't think it's capable of. It may exist a third party that provide it.

 

As a workaround, you can have a scheduled task that store arp -a output.

If you have a dhcp server, you may watch its leases.
