Why not just create a task that ran a
command (ipconfig) to tell you what the IP address is. Then execute the task
on the endpoint. The IP address should be in the STDOUT.

lowlevel command to obtain endpoint ip address on NAT enabled TME
Thanks Gary/Jason. From Gary's explanation, the IP of an endpoint
instance in a NAT enable TME is not available from any object database or
registry on the TME. Your explanation does make sense, unfortunately it only
confirms my fears! Looks like I'll have to abandon the thought, unless someone
comes up with some magical way of achieving the objective( to provide the
installer with more information for further analysis when/where needed).
Thanks
for all your swift assistance gents. Keep well and on track.

So you are asking for the real address of the
endpoint that is on the other
side of a NAT firewall?
This information would not be available to the
Endpoint Manager. In a
configuration like this, you would be using the
name of the endpoint to
communicate with it, and the name is converted by
the appropriate naming
service to an IP address, which will be converted
to the real address when
it passes through the firewall.
An IP address may be stored in the Endpoint
Manager database, but this
address is very likely to be the NAT'd address,
not the real one. Is this
the IP address you are asking for?

Please
respond to
tme10
Can someone please tell me the low level (i.e.
objcall,idcall,etc.) command
to obtain the IP ADDRESS of an endpoint on a
Tivoli Management Environment
that has NAT enabled? I need the IP as registered
in on the TMR.
Thanking you in advance,
Napo
