Here is a handy CLI tool to find the company manufacturer for any mac address. All you have to do is download, run a quick one-liner in the CLI, and hit enter.
- you have python3 installed >
- sudo apt install python3
- confirm version with >
- python3 --version
In the command line, type:
- python3 mac-lookup.py [paste mac address here without brackets]
Tech used:
- Docker
- Python3
- CLI
This CLI tool was made to quickly look up any mac-address manufacturer. I added the argument section so you can lookup direct from cli. The program then pings a website with your mac address, reads/decodes the content, finds the web section for the manufacturer/company, and finally prints it to you.
