[Bluez-devel] Database of MAC addresses

[Bluez-devel] Database of MAC addresses

[Yuriy Vikulov]

Hello!

Can anybody tell me if there is any database of mac addresses ( or some maskes),
which can be used to determine name of firm manufacture of phone. For example,
Sony erricson or Siemens. May be, Someone knows another way?

Thanks.
Yuriy

the first three byte of an address (the OUI part) are assigned by the
IEEE. If you provide /var/lib/misc/oui.txt a lot of BlueZ utilities
(including the new D-Bus API) will tell you the company name. However
this doesn't mean that you can easily identify the phone manufacturer.
It is simply not enough.

Regards

Marcel

Hi Yuriy,

> Do you know, Can Manufactures describe their Macs

check http://standards.ieee.org/regauth/oui/ and the Bluetooth
specification for details on the BD_ADDR.

Yuriy,

The following link

http://standards.ieee.org/regauth/oui/index.shtml

is the IEEE registration authority for MAC addresses where you can do a
search or even download the entire database.  But as Marcel mentions, it's
only good for the BT radio chip manufacturer, not the brand name of the
phone in which it is used.
