The Catalyst is the name of the Switches made by Cisco. :-)
I'm not sure if it shows the mac address of the cisco's port or
the actual device connected to it...
FastEthernet0/1 is up, line protocol is up
Hardware is Fast Ethernet, address is 0090.abea.3bc1 (bia
0090.abea.3bc1)
FastEthernet0/2 is up, line protocol is up
Hardware is Fast Ethernet, address is 0090.abea.3bc2 (bia
0090.abea.3bc2)
Seems more like the Cisco's port's arp address to me than the
devices.

That's a option too... Only problem is that can take forever. :-)
