Frequently Asked Questions

What is a MAC address?

A MAC (Media Access Control) address is a unique identifier assigned to network interfaces for communications at the data link layer. It consists of six groups of two hexadecimal digits separated by colons.

How are the MAC addresses generated?

The MAC addresses are generated using Faker.js library which creates properly formatted MAC addresses following the standard format (XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX) with valid hexadecimal characters.

Can I use these MAC addresses for real devices?

These MAC addresses are intended for development and testing purposes only. Real MAC addresses are assigned by manufacturers and should be unique. Do not use these for actual network device configuration.

What is the format of a MAC address?

MAC addresses are typically written as six groups of two hexadecimal digits separated by colons (e.g., 32:8e:2e:09:c6:05) or hyphens. Each group represents one byte (8 bits) of the 48-bit address.

Are these addresses guaranteed to be unique?

No, these are randomly generated for testing purposes and may not be unique. Real MAC addresses are managed by the IEEE Registration Authority to ensure global uniqueness.
