Update for Delphi 10.2 Tokyo supported.

procedure TForm4.RetrieveLocalAdapterInformation;
var
  pAdapterInfo: PIP_ADAPTER_INFO;
  AdapterInfo: IP_ADAPTER_INFO;
  BufLen: DWORD;
  Status: DWORD;
  strMAC: String;
  i: Integer;

  strings: TStrings;
begin
  strings:= Tstringlist.create;
  strings.Clear;

  BufLen:= sizeof(AdapterInfo);
  pAdapterInfo:= @AdapterInfo;

  Status:= GetAdaptersInfo(nil, BufLen);
  pAdapterInfo:= AllocMem(BufLen);
  try
    Status:= GetAdaptersInfo(pAdapterInfo, BufLen);

    if (Status <> ERROR_SUCCESS) then
      begin
        case Status of
          ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED:
            strings.Add('GetAdaptersInfo is not supported by the operating ' +
                        'system running on the local computer.');
          ERROR_NO_DATA:
            strings.Add('No network adapter on the local computer.');
        else
            strings.Add('GetAdaptersInfo failed with error #' + IntToStr(Status));
        end;
        Dispose(pAdapterInfo);
        Exit;
      end;

    while (pAdapterInfo <> nil) do
      begin
      memo1.Lines.Add('');
         memo1.Lines.Add('Description: ------------------------' + pAdapterInfo^.Description);
         memo1.Lines.Add('Name: ' + pAdapterInfo^.AdapterName);

        strMAC := '';
        for I := 0 to pAdapterInfo^.AddressLength - 1 do
            strMAC := strMAC + '-' + IntToHex(pAdapterInfo^.Address[I], 2);

        Delete(strMAC, 1, 1);
         memo1.Lines.Add('MAC address: ' + strMAC);
         memo1.Lines.Add('IP address: ' + pAdapterInfo^.IpAddressList.IpAddress.S);
         memo1.Lines.Add('IP subnet mask: ' + pAdapterInfo^.IpAddressList.IpMask.S);
         memo1.Lines.Add('Gateway: ' + pAdapterInfo^.GatewayList.IpAddress.S);
         memo1.Lines.Add('DHCP enabled: ' + IntTOStr(pAdapterInfo^.DhcpEnabled));
         memo1.Lines.Add('DHCP: ' + pAdapterInfo^.DhcpServer.IpAddress.S);
         memo1.Lines.Add('Have WINS: ' + BoolToStr(pAdapterInfo^.HaveWins,True));
         memo1.Lines.Add('Primary WINS: ' + pAdapterInfo^.PrimaryWinsServer.IpAddress.S);
         memo1.Lines.Add('Secondary WINS: ' + pAdapterInfo^.SecondaryWinsServer.IpAddress.S);

        pAdapterInfo:= pAdapterInfo^.Next;
    end;
  finally
    Dispose(pAdapterInfo);
    strings.free;
  end;
end;
