Gets the MAC address of the local host. (Used in debugging)

This function is used to check and obtain the MAC address of the running device when debugging communication-related features.

The MAC address is a unique value for each system, but it may change if the system is repaired or otherwise modified. To identify a particular system, use the nn::cfg::CTR::GetTransferableId function instead.
