ALCATEL - SEL — IEEE MA-L assignment confirmed; device category Unknown
Summary
- // what this is
- Alcatel - SEL is registered to MAC prefix
00:C0:BEin the IEEE OUI database. When a device's MAC address begins with00:C0:BE, that block was registered by Alcatel - SEL — 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:C0:BE matches an IEEE MA-L assignment to ALCATEL - SEL; the supplied records do not identify a device category or product using this prefix. The assignment identifies a registry entry, not a particular device, deployment, or current vendor identity.
This is a 24-bit prefix, leaving 24 bits for the address suffix: 16,777,216 possible suffix values. That arithmetic describes possible values only, not a count of devices, shipments, or addresses observed in use.
In this exact prefix, the first-byte Group and Local bits are both zero. RFC 7042 describes these bits' significance for MAC identifiers. Changing either bit changes the prefix and therefore no longer matches this exact assignment. The matching boundary is the first three octets, 00:C0:BE.
The supplied IEEE MA-L row lists the organization name ALCATEL - SEL and the address text “LORENZ STR DE”; it contains no assignment date. The country is Unknown.
