Adaptive Micro-Ware Inc. — MAC Prefix Identification
Summary
- // what this is
- Adaptive Micro-Ware is registered to MAC prefix
00:1A:0Ain the IEEE OUI database. When a device's MAC address begins with00:1A:0A, that block was registered by Adaptive Micro-Ware — the OUI identifies the maker of the network hardware, which is not always the brand on the device. - // analyst note
- An exact match identifies the IEEE assignment; the company profile does not map these products to this prefix.
About this vendor.
A MAC address beginning with 00:1A:0A matches an IEEE MA-L assignment to Adaptive Micro-Ware Inc. The assignment identifies the registry holder; it does not establish which device, operating system, or product emitted a captured address. The supplied company profile describes Adaptive as an electronic design firm and recounts work on embedded controllers, industrial control systems, storage systems, and digital video satellite equipment.
The prefix is 24 bits long, leaving 24 bits for suffix values: 16,777,216 possible combinations. That is a mathematical range, not a count of devices or shipments. RFC 7042 identifies the Group bit (mask 01) and Local bit (mask 02) as significant in the initial octet of a MAC address, and says OUIs and longer MAC prefixes are assigned with the Local bit zero and the Group bit unspecified.
In the supplied assignment, the first byte is 00, so both bits are zero; changing either bit would change the prefix.
A matching address alone cannot establish deployment, prevalence, or security status.
- Identification
