Hopefully this is a quick answer: I'm starting some work with Azure AD and a term I'm seeing over and over is an Azure AD "tenant". It seems to be synonymous and used interchangeably with an Azure AD "directory", but is it?

I'm probably just being pedantic, and I'm guessing it's obvious to everyone else, but nothing I can find explains this plainly. This is the closest thing I've found and even that makes a jump I can't follow, switching terms from "tenant" to "directory" without explaining:

With the identity platform provided by Microsoft Azure, a tenant is simply a dedicated instance of Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) that your organization receives and owns when it signs up for a Microsoft cloud service such as Azure or Office 365.

Each Azure AD directory is distinct and separate from other Azure AD directories. Just like a corporate office building is a secure asset specific to only your organization, an Azure AD directory [...]

Can anyone just confirm the relationship between these two terms, for the record?

Is it possible to programmatically retrieve the IP or MAC address of a station assigned to a Windows MultiPoint Server 2012 host, using PowerShell or any other .NET or Windows API?

Background: I'm developing a application to help set up USB-over-Ethernet zero clients in a WMS 2012 setup, bridging the PowerShell "WmsCmdlets" module (Microsoft.WindowsServerSolutions.MultipointServer.PowerShell.Commands.Library.WmsStation) and a third-party vendor API for configuring zero client IP address, etc. So far, I do not know any means of matching up the "stations" of the WmsCmdlets with the zero client objects in the vendor's API.

Finding out the IP or MAC associated with a WMS station would do nicely, since I have this on the zero client API side. However, I haven't found any information I could use in the PowerShell WmsCmdlets module, such as Get-WmsStation which returns the following:

Id                         : 1
Name                       : <my station name>
IsAutoLogOn                : False
IsSplit                    : False
CollabId                   : 0
RemoteConnectionServerName :
VirtualMachineName         :
VirtualMachineId           :
AutoLogOnUserName          :
AutoLogOnPassword          :
DeviceTypes                : {DT_Mouse, DT_Keyboard, DT_Audio, DT_MassStorage...}
DeviceCounts               : {2, 2, 0, 0...}
ComputerName               : <my WMS host server name>
SessionId                  : 4294967295
SessionHostServer          : <my WMS host server name>
