I guess I didn't explain my self good. What I want is tool that i can do: Ping 00:0F:EA:8C:FC:5A And in return get the ip of this mac
You might want to explain exactly what you are trying to accomplish in more detail: as in "Why?"
ARP resolution of the MAC to the actual IP will only work if you are on the same subnet as the host--otherwise you'll get the default gateway's MAC when resolving the IP address. Given that, if the host *is* on the same subnet, and you want to reach it, it doesn't really matter what IP address is bound to the adapter-- you can just add a static ARP entry on the local system to assign the MAC to whatever "in-network" IP you want, whether it's the "real" IP or not...
