About this vendor.

Updated  ·  Confidence: High  ·  2 sources  ·  How this page is checked

A MAC address beginning 00:1A:36 matches an IEEE MA-L assignment to Aipermon GmbH & Co. KG. The supplied record identifies the registrant, but does not identify any device category or product that uses this prefix, so the device is Unknown from the prefix alone.

The assignment covers 24 initial bits of a 48-bit MAC address. The remaining 24 bits allow 16,777,216 possible suffix values; this is a mathematical range, not a count of devices or shipments. In the first octet 00, the Group and Local bits are both zero. Those bits are fixed for an exact 00:1A:36 prefix match. Changing either bit changes the prefix and is not variation within this assignment.

RFC 7042 explains that MAC identifiers can use an OUI or a longer assigned prefix, with the remaining bits supplying the identifier suffix. A captured matching address can establish that its first 24 bits match this registry assignment. This does not establish a particular product, current vendor identity, deployment, traffic prevalence, or security status.
