Adapt-IP MAC prefix 10:C6:5E: device type unknown

Primary prefix
10:C6:5E
Block
MA-L

Summary

// what this is
Adapt-IP is registered to MAC prefix 10:C6:5E in the IEEE OUI database. When a device's MAC address begins with 10:C6:5E, that block was registered by Adapt-IP — the OUI identifies the maker of the network hardware, which is not always the brand on the device.
// analyst note
A prefix match identifies a registry assignment, not a particular device, operating system, current legal identity, or security state.

About this vendor.

Updated  ·  Confidence: Medium  ·  3 sources  ·  How this page is checked

A MAC address beginning 10:C6:5E matches an IEEE MA-L assignment to Adapt-IP; the available evidence does not identify a device type for this prefix. A match establishes the registry assignment, not the device’s maker, operating system, current vendor identity, or security state.

The assignment covers the first 24 bits, or three octets. In the first octet, 10 hex has Group bit 0 and Local bit 0. These bits are fixed for this exact prefix; changing either bit creates a different prefix. For 48-bit MAC addresses, the Group bit distinguishes group from individual addresses, and the Local bit indicates local administration.

For 48-bit MAC addresses, the remaining 24 bits allow 16,777,216 possible suffix values. That is a mathematical address-space count, not a count of devices or shipments. The company’s privacy page identifies Adapt-IP Company, says ADAPT CargoSense acquired Adapt-IP, and refers to Adapt-IP products, software, and tools. It does not map any product to this prefix or state when the acquisition occurred.

What a match shows
