Why is my NIC ID reported as all zeros (000000000000) when I use the Netbios NET CONFIG command?

Solution You can use the ipconfig/all command to obtain the physical address of the NIC ID. If you are currently using the Netbios protocol for a LAN rather than TCP/IP, this command will return 000000000000 as the physical address of all NIC IDs. You must be running the TCP/IP protocol to use Altera floating licenses. This type of license will not work with any other protocols, such as IPX or NetBUI.
