What do you mean by the LAN ID? Chance are that "IPConfig /all" will do what you want but the term you used is not the common way of saying it. IF you run TCP/IP which most people do these days, then IPConfig /ALL will show both your IP address AND your MAC (hardware NIC) address. NetSh.exe is much more complicated to use but it can also give you this information.
