net.mac-vendor

Resolve a MAC address (or bare OUI prefix) to its IEEE-registered hardware vendor. Accepts any common format — FC:FB:FB:01:02:03, fc-fb-fb-01-02-03, fcfb.fb01.0203, fcfbfb, or a 9-hex MA-S prefix. Uses longest-prefix matching across the IEEE MA-L (24-bit), MA-M (28-bit) and MA-S (36-bit) registries so blocks IEEE has subdivided resolve to the actual manufacturer. Returns the vendor name, the matched OUI prefix and which registry it came from, plus decoded address bits: whether the address is multicast/group, locally administered, or a randomized (privacy) MAC — for which no vendor exists by design. Authoritative bundled IEEE data.

Code samples

cURLbash

# 1. Probe with no auth → 402 envelope with PaymentRequirements
curl -sS 'https://2s.io/api/net/mac-vendor?mac=example'

# 2. Sign + retry with PAYMENT-SIGNATURE:
curl -sS 'https://2s.io/api/net/mac-vendor?mac=example' \
  -H 'PAYMENT-SIGNATURE: <base64-json-payload>'

# Or use the canonical runner (handles probe → sign → retry):
#   EVM_PRIVATE_KEY=0x... node --env-file=.env.local \
#     --experimental-strip-types scripts/x402-pay.ts \
#     'https://2s.io/api/net/mac-vendor?mac=example'
