Is there a way to identify a client by MAC address when using
the Vibe library?
The `NetworkAddress`
[structure](https://vibed.org/api/vibe.core.net/NetworkAddress) does not provide such features. Or did I miss something?
That doesn't have anything to do with the server side if I am
not mistaken as you should receive that via the browser that
actually allows you to receive the mac address -via an
extension- or some private API exposed by the browser.
I don't know the use case but you may be better off with
browser fingerprinting if you'd like to have a unique way of
identifying the visitors. Or, if it's a local network, maybe
you can use tcpdump/libpcap.
It is at the packet level to monitor the address. Not at all what
I would like. Thanks for the tip:)
