You need the Mac in your possession or access to the network it's using. The reason is that its hardware address could be used for malicious purposes, and physical inaccessibly is a fundamental component of an overall security strategy.


System Information > Hardware > select the network interface > MAC Address.


The System Information app is your Mac's Utilities folder.
