FAQ
- Which company owns MAC address prefix D0:A5:A6?
- MAC address prefix D0:A5:A6 is registered to Cisco Systems, Inc in the IEEE Organizationally Unique Identifier (OUI) registry. Any device whose MAC address begins with D0:A5:A6 has a network interface built by Cisco Systems, Inc.
- What is the OUI D0:A5:A6?
- D0:A5:A6 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 D0:A5:A6:00:00:00 to D0:A5:A6:FF:FF:FF, or 16,777,216 addresses in total. It is also written D0-A5-A6.
- How do I find the manufacturer of a MAC address?
- Take the first three octets of the address — in D0:A5:A6:00:00:00 that is D0:A5:A6 — 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.
- Where is Cisco Systems, Inc located?
- Cisco Systems, Inc is listed at 170 West Tasman Drive San Jose CA US 95134 in the IEEE OUI registry entry for D0:A5:A6. This is the address the organization registered with the IEEE, which may differ from its current operating address.
- How many MAC prefixes does Cisco Systems, Inc own?
- Cisco Systems, Inc holds 1251 OUI prefixes in the IEEE registry, of which D0:A5:A6 is one. A device made by Cisco Systems, Inc could carry a MAC address from any of them.
