Type "netstat -ain". You will see something like:
horus 1# netstat -ain
Name Mtu Network Address Ipkts Ierrs Opkts Oerrs Coll
et0 1500 193.35.16 193.35.16.1 35528 0 35008 0 4784
224.0.2.2
224.0.0.1
08:00:69:02:0c:70
lo0 32880 127 127.0.0.1 21490 0 21490 0 0
224.0.0.1
horus 2#
The ethernet address is the six pairs of hex digits separated by colons
on line 5 of the example shown above.
