It's a helper tool to manipulate mac addresses. From its help: GNU MAC Changer Usage: macchanger [options] device -h, --help Print this help -V, --version Print version and exit -s, --show Print the MAC address and exit -e, --endding Don't change the vendor bytes -a, --another Set random vendor MAC of the same kind -A Set random vendor MAC of any kind -r, --random Set fully random MAC -l, --list[=keyword] Print known vendors -m, --mac=XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX Set the MAC XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX So it's useful when you want to set random mac addresses, change vendor id, do not change vendor id.
