IP from MAC Address

Hi!

I have a small office network (about 50 machines) with linux internet server. One of the machines use huge traffic. I know its mac address, but how to resolve its IP?


Thanks

Hi,

You can use
Code:
arp -an
Or if you have nmap installed:
Code:
nmap -sP 192.168.0.1-50
where 192.168.0.1-50 is the IP range of your LAN

Regards
