Does anybody know how you detect the 2xEthernet ports which are
inbuilt in
the new Tower systems, and which corresponds to port 1 and port 2
from what
I have seen from the technical diagrams on Apple support.
I can guess that I can iterate over the IOEthernetInterface in the
IORegistry, but how to do you know which is which and maybe in the
future is
others get thrown in for good measure, if it clear but I don't have
access
to this machine to play with :-(.
Why do you care if they are built-in? By adding PCI cards you can add
multiple Ethernet ports to any recent PowerMac, and if your code
handles that case correctly, it will handle the new PowerMacs as well.
