Hi,
this a somwhat old thread but I came across the same "challenge" today to find out the mac addresses of some APs. So maybe this method might be useful for a rookie like me in the future. Basically you don't need a special tool but just use the controller.
On the CLI
sh ap database long
works for AOS 6.xx and 8.xx
In the the dashboard under Access Points you can customize columns to show the MAC address as well. A bit inconvinient in version 6.xx as you cant't copy the results. Under 8.xx copy works

Subject: Tool to find AP ethernet mac address
Is there a tool which can supply me the actual ethernet mac address of an AP? Tried Wifi analyzer but only got virtual BSSID numbers.
I am trying to find a tool where i can walk around with my phone and identify the name of the AP, ethernet mac address (difficult to reach place high up on ceiling).
Had some small success by identifying the BSSID and matching it on the controller to the wireless base mac address, but isn't there a more direct way?
