Can I determine the current IP from a known MAC Address?

Question

I have a shell script which uses etherwake to wake up a machine on my local network. After the machine is awake, I\'m not sure of the IP address.

Answer 1

Neal's answer takes indeed too long. I had to get it work with a 60k+ IPs range. The trick to make this work is to check arp table after each ping. This also fixes the root problem : no need. I did it in Java (see threadedScan() here) because I was on windows and needed a solution which wouldn't spawn thousands of cmd prompts while trying to ping with start command. And it works faster (~10 sec for my 60k range) with a fixedThreadPool.
