Many thanks for your reply!

Indeed I thought about ssh on to the NAS with a private key installed but there is no ssh server on this old NAS...
For the Address Resolution Protocol (arp -ev 192.168.10) works great to give me the MAC address of my device.
Therefore it seems I have the right tools to arp!!
Good!! But could you please be a bit more specific on the kind of tool I have to ARP on my network in order to check the MAC address associated with the ip?
On other network how to check if I have such a tool?
I guess I just try the command arp..? But How to get this arp tool if I do not have it?
Please any links to more resource about this is more than appreciated.

Thanks again for your help, that is great advice!
