Hi,
it works in detecting and listing the devices:

./if2mac
MAC Address=00:xx:xx:xx:xx:47 -> eth5 - wired
MAC Address=00:xx:xx:xx:xx:46 -> eth4 - wired
MAC Address=00:xx:xx:xx:xx:4D -> eth11 - wired
MAC Address=54:xx:xx:xx:xx:62 -> wlan0 - wireless
MAC Address=00:xx:xx:xx:xx:6B -> eth3 - wired
MAC Address=00:xx:xx:xx:xx:4A -> eth8 - wired
MAC Address=00:xx:xx:xx:xx:4C -> eth10 - wired
MAC Address=00:xx:xx:xx:xx:4B -> eth9 - wired
MAC Address=00:xx:xx:xx:xx:49 -> eth7 - wired
MAC Address=00:xx:xx:xx:xx:6A -> eth2 - wired
MAC Address=00:xx:xx:xx:xx:69 -> eth1 - wired
MAC Address=00:xx:xx:xx:xx:68 -> eth0 - wired
MAC Address=00:xx:xx:xx:xx:48 -> eth6 - wired
MAC Address=00:xx:xx:xx:xx:6A -> br0 - wired

The order is somewhat..... different.

Ciao,
Tito
