Is it possible to populate the MAC Address fields of clients from an AD Attribute ?

    Why would you need to when the MAC address is already captured in the NICs of an asset?

    PDQ Inventory gets the MAC address when the Network Adapters scanner, which is part of the Standard Scan Profile, runs successfully on a target.

    Lycée,

    You could try this script I wrote a while ago, it doesn't import the MAC addresses into PDQ but if you can output a CSV file containing the computer names and MAC addresses then my script should be able to wake those computers:
