Hello,


now the question may seem simple ("how to grab the MAC address of a
given interface"), but what is actually a "portable" way that does not
potentially break when upgrading to a newer openSUSE?

I could fiddle with `hwinfo --network` or try parse `ip l sh dev br0`
output, but what's actually best? [Using sh.]


Jan
