That depends on your operating system. Perusing https://github.com/puppetlabs/facter/blob/master/lib/facter/ipaddress.rb will show you exactly what it's doing. If you're using a *nix variant, facter uses ifconfig. If windows, it uses the socket library. -- Peter -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
