Project Summary
This module provides an interface to deal with Media Access Control (or MAC) addresses. These are the addresses that uniquely identify a device on a network. Although the common case is hardware addresses on network cards, there are a variety of devices that use this system.
This module supports both EUI-48 and EUI-64 addresses.
Some devices that use EUI-48 (or MAC-48) addresses include:
Ethernet
802.11 wireless networks
Bluetooth
IEEE 802.5 token ring
FDDI
ATM
Some devices that use EUI-64 addresses include:
