Manufacturer list

Rack Retriever knows the MAC prefixes of 56 common homelab brands, including Ubiquiti, Netgear, TP-Link, MikroTik, Synology, Raspberry Pi, Intel and Dell, and works them out offline. For every other maker, load the official list from the IEEE, the organisation that hands out MAC prefixes. It's free, and Rack Retriever keeps it on this device.

  1. Open this address in your browser. It downloads a file called oui.csv:
  2. Choose that file here. You can add the smaller lists (mam.csv, oas.csv) too.
