How to get the adapter name

NTDEV
1

Hi,

I have named my adapters as ManagementPort0, ControlPort0 … etc.
In my program, I want to get the IP address of the ManagementPort0.

Can anyone help me how to get it.

I have tried using GetAdaptersInfo() and also GetIfTable() and GetIpAddress(). But, couldnt get the adapter names.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Vinay

I assume you mentioned the network adapters.
You can use WMI classes: Win32_NetworkAdapter, Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration.

Or via Setup API find all devices in class “net”

When you say you have “named your adapters as…”, what do you mean? What API did you use to “name” your adapter?
