MAC Adressen

Each PROFINET device is addressed using its globally unique MAC address. This MAC addressconsists of a company code (bits 24 ... 47) as an OUI (Organizationally Unique Identifier) and a consecutive number (bits 0 … 23), which allows to identify up to 16,777,214 products. The OUI is assigned by the IEEE Standards Department to any company. PI has been granted the OUI 00-0E-CF. PI provides all device manufacturers, which do not want to apply for their own OUI, 4k-ranges of PI’s OUI.

This service allows companies to acquire MAC addresses directly from the PI Support Center.
