AK-NORD EDV VERTRIEBSGES. mbH: MAC prefix identifies a registry assignment
Summary
- // what this is
- AK-NORD EDV VERTRIEBSGES. mbH is registered to MAC prefix
08:BB:CCin the IEEE OUI database. When a device's MAC address begins with08:BB:CC, that block was registered by AK-NORD EDV VERTRIEBSGES. mbH — the OUI identifies the maker of the network hardware, which is not always the brand on the device. - // analyst note
- RFC 7042 bit interpretation for 08:BB:CC: first-octet Group bit (01) and Local bit (02) are both zero and fixed for this exact 24-bit prefix; a changed bit is a different prefix. The 24-bit suffix space has 16,777,216 possible values, not a device or shipment count. A prefix match indicates registry assignment only.
About this vendor.
A MAC address beginning 08:BB:CC matches an IEEE MA-L assignment registered to AK-NORD EDV VERTRIEBSGES. mbH; the record does not identify a device type or product. The available evidence establishes the assignment only, so the vendor’s products, industry, and country are not identified here.
The prefix is 24 bits long, leaving 24 bits for suffix values: 16,777,216 possible values. That arithmetic describes the address space, not a count of devices, shipments, or observed traffic. A match can associate the address with the registry record, but cannot establish who deployed it or its present security status.
RFC 7042 explains that the first-octet Group bit is 01 and Local bit is 02. For this exact prefix, both are fixed at zero. The match boundary is the first three octets, 08:BB:CC; changing either bit produces a different prefix. These bit interpretations do not indicate an observed device or deployment.
