# MAC Address Vendor Lookup API
A FastAPI service that identifies network device manufacturers from MAC addresses using a three-tier lookup strategy for optimal performance and reliability.
## Features
- **Multi-format MAC address support**: Accepts various formats (with/without separators)
- **Partial MAC lookup**: Works with full addresses or just the first 6 digits (OUI)
- **Three-tier lookup strategy**:

- **Standardized output**: Returns MAC addresses in dash-separated format
## Supported MAC Address Formats
All of these formats are accepted:
- `000000` (OUI only)
- `00:00:01`
- `00-00-02-AB-CD-EF`
- `000003ABCDEF`

### Expected Response
## Response Format
### Success Response (HTTP 200)
When a vendor is found:
```json
{
"mac_address": "70-22-FE",
"vendor": "Apple, Inc."
"vendor": "Apple, Inc.",
"detail": null
}
```
### Error Responses
**Invalid MAC address:**
### Not Found Response (HTTP 404)
When MAC address is valid but vendor is not found:
```json
{
"mac_address": "70-22-54",
"vendor": null,
"detail": "Vendor not found"
}
```
### Error Response (HTTP 400)
When MAC address format is invalid:
```json
{
"mac_address": "70-22-HI",
"vendor": null,
"detail": "Invalid MAC address format"
}
```
**Unknown vendor:**
```json
{
"mac_address": "FF-FF-FF",
"vendor": "Unknown"
}
```
## HTTP Status Codes
- **200 OK**: Valid MAC address with vendor found
- **400 Bad Request**: Invalid MAC address format
- **404 Not Found**: Valid MAC address but vendor not found
## Local MAC Vendor File
To improve performance, you can provide a local `mac_list.txt` file in the same format as the [IEEE OUI database](https://gist.githubusercontent.com/aallan/b4bb86db86079509e6159810ae9bd3e4/raw/846ae1b646ab0f4d646af9115e47365f4118e5f6/mac-vendor.txt):
```
000000 Officially Xerox
000001 SuperLAN-2U
000002 BBN (was internal usage only, no longer used)

000001 SuperLAN-2U
000002 BBN (was internal usage only, no longer used)

```
## Lookup Strategy
1. **Local File**: Checks `mac_list.txt` first (fastest, no network calls)
2. **GitHub Database**: Falls back to the official IEEE OUI database
3. **External API**: Uses macvendors.com API as final fallback
4. **Unknown**: Returns "Unknown" if no matches found
4. **Not Found**: Returns vendor not found if no matches are found
