# 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**:

## Supported MAC Address Formats
|
||||
|
||||
All of these formats are accepted:
|
||||
- `000000` (OUI only)
|

||||
{
|
||||
"mac_address": "70-22-FE",
|
||||
"vendor": "Apple, Inc."

|
||||
### 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
|
||||

|
||||

|
||||
```
|
||||
## 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):

|
||||
000003 XEROX CORPORATION
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## 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
