AirFlow Networks MAC Prefix: Vendor Identified, Device Unknown
Summary
- // what this is
- AirFlow Networks is registered to MAC prefix
00:0B:C8in the IEEE OUI database. When a device's MAC address begins with00:0B:C8, that block was registered by AirFlow Networks — the OUI identifies the maker of the network hardware, which is not always the brand on the device.
About this vendor.
A MAC address beginning 00:0B:C8 matches an IEEE MA-L assignment registered to AirFlow Networks; the specific device or product is unknown. A prefix match identifies the registry assignment, not a particular device, operating system, current vendor identity, or security state.
The assignment is 24 bits long, leaving 24 bits for possible suffix values: 16,777,216 combinations. That is a mathematical range, not a count of devices or shipments. The Group and Local bits in the first byte of this exact prefix are both fixed at zero. Changing either bit produces a different prefix, so those variations do not match this literal assignment.
RFC 7042 describes 48-bit MAC identifiers as an assigned initial prefix followed by remaining bits. Compare the first three bytes to 00:0B:C8 to test this MA-L match. The supplied records contain no assignment date.
