Hi Guys,
Just a quick question, if the label behind my AP1200 at the bottom right panel is missing, is there any other way for me to locate the MAC address for the AP?
I've managed to hook it up to my office network and am trying to set the IP address for it using Cisco IPSU but I can't seem to locate the MAC address.
Any kind souls to help me out?

Hook your PC up to it, either with a crossover cable or by themselves on a switch / hub.
Power them both up and let 'em "cook" for a couple minutes.
Bring up a DOS window on the PC and do an ARP -A
If the AP is connected to a managed switch, you can probably just read the ARP table from the switch (no PC needed).
The ARP command should display the MAC address heard from the AP (from routine traffic / broadcast).
Good Luck

You can console into the AP and issue a "show interfaces" command. The second line of text output will contain the MAC address
