Private
MAC address prefix 00:0E:EF is registered to Private in the IEEE OUI registry. Any device whose MAC address begins with 00:0E:EF has a network interface built by Private. This prefix (the OUI, or Organizationally Unique Identifier) is assigned by the IEEE and is the first three octets of the address — it covers every MAC from 00:0E:EF:00:00:00 to 00:0E:EF:FF:FF:FF.

FAQ
- Which company owns MAC address prefix 00:0E:EF?
- MAC address prefix 00:0E:EF is registered to Private in the IEEE Organizationally Unique Identifier (OUI) registry. Any device whose MAC address begins with 00:0E:EF has a network interface built by Private.
- What is the OUI 00:0E:EF?
- 00:0E:EF is an Organizationally Unique Identifier — the first three octets (24 bits) of a MAC address, assigned by the IEEE to Private. It covers every address from 00:0E:EF:00:00:00 to 00:0E:EF:FF:FF:FF, or 16,777,216 addresses in total. It is also written 00-0E-EF.
- How do I find the manufacturer of a MAC address?
- Take the first three octets of the address — in 00:0E:EF:00:00:00 that is 00:0E:EF — and look that prefix up in the IEEE OUI registry. If the second-lowest bit of the first octet is set, the address is locally administered (a randomized or private MAC), which belongs to no manufacturer and will not resolve; modern phones and laptops use these by default on each network.
