ALANTRO COMMUNICATIONS: vendor identified; device type unknown
Summary
- // what this is
- Alantro Communications is registered to MAC prefix
00:D0:A4in the IEEE OUI database. When a device's MAC address begins with00:D0:A4, that block was registered by Alantro Communications — the OUI identifies the maker of the network hardware, which is not always the brand on the device. - // analyst note
- A MAC address beginning
00:D0:A4matches the ALANTRO COMMUNICATIONS MA-L assignment. The 24-bit prefix leaves 24 suffix bits, or 16,777,216 possible suffix values; this is not a device or shipment count. The Group and Local bits in the first octet are both zero and fixed for this exact prefix match. Changing either bit produces a different prefix. A match establishes the registry assignment, not a particular device or deployment.
About this vendor.
A MAC address beginning 00:D0:A4 matches an IEEE MA-L assignment to ALANTRO COMMUNICATIONS. The record identifies the registrant, but does not identify a device category or show that a particular product uses this prefix. A match is evidence of the registry assignment, not proof of a device’s maker, current operator, deployment, or safety.
This 24-bit prefix leaves 24 bits for suffix values, allowing 16,777,216 possible suffix values. That number describes the address space, not observed devices or shipments. In the first octet 00, the Group bit and Local bit are both zero; those bits are fixed for an exact 00:D0:A4 prefix match. Turning either bit on changes the prefix and therefore does not match this exact assignment. RFC 7042 describes the relationship between MAC identifiers and assigned prefixes.
