FAQ
- Which company owns MAC address prefix C4:44:A0?
- MAC address prefix C4:44:A0 is registered to Cisco Systems, Inc in the IEEE Organizationally Unique Identifier (OUI) registry. Any device whose MAC address begins with C4:44:A0 has a network interface built by Cisco Systems, Inc.
- What is the OUI C4:44:A0?
- C4:44:A0 is an Organizationally Unique Identifier — the first three octets (24 bits) of a MAC address, assigned by the IEEE to Cisco Systems, Inc. It covers every address from C4:44:A0:00:00:00 to C4:44:A0:FF:FF:FF, or 16,777,216 addresses in total. It is also written C4-44-A0.
- How do I find the manufacturer of a MAC address?
- Take the first three octets of the address — in C4:44:A0:00:00:00 that is C4:44:A0 — 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.
