NS3 WIRESHARK MAC ADDRESS MAC
be some mechanism to translate MAC addresses (which are fixed in hardware. implementation in the popular ns-3 network simulator. ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) is a link-layer protocol used to translate. In this case its Texas Instruments OUI (00:1a:b6) so there is nothing to worry about. authority, both providing multiple MAC addresses per device to.

I searched for TexasIns_00 and found that this device is a USB packet sniffer. Actually TexasIns is just Wiresharks interpretation of whats called the OUI (Organizationally Unique Identifier) which is the first three bytes of the MAC address that is unique to every manufacturer.
NS3 WIRESHARK MAC ADDRESS REGISTRATION
If the bit is 0, the address is universally administered and registered at the IEEE Registration Authority: If the L/G-bit is is 1, the address is locally administered. User Datagram Protocol, Src Port: 68, Dst Port: 67Ĭlient MAC address: TexasIns_00:64:00 (00:1a:b6:00:64:00)Ĭlient hardware address padding: 00000000000000000000īootp vendor specific options: 000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000. One Answer: Can Wireshark automatically extract the Network Interface Card vendor from the MAC address alone Yes, as long as the L/G-bit within the MAC address 0.


I found a blocked MAC address (00-1A-B6-00-64-00) in MAC access list and after disabling the MAC filtering show this detail in Wireshark : Frame 112389: 342 bytes on wire (2736 bits), 342 bytes captured (2736 bits) on interface 0Įthernet II, Src: TexasIns_00:64:00 (00:1a:b6:00:64:00), Dst: Broadcast (ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff)
