Can anyone tell me what Ethernet address were assigned to what vendors. More specifically, I am interested in what addresses Fujitsu has got. Peter Elford, Computer Services Centre, Australian National University, Canberra, AUSTRALIA.

My understanding is that when vendors get the addresses assigned it is confidential so Xerox (who use to assign them) and IEEE (who assigns them now) don't release the information.

Message-ID: <444@mitel.misemi> Date: 20 Jan 89 19:22:13 GMT Organization: MITEL Corporation, Kanata, Ontario, Canada. Thanks to all those who responded to my question concerning the application for a block of ethernet addresses for manufacturers. I have included the final information here for those who are interested. Rumor has it that we had a block assigned to us well before my time, with nobody able to find the documentation. So... 10 points to those people who gave me the following name and address: Mr. Vincent Condello Telephone: (212) 705-7960 IEEE Standards Office (212) 705-7092 345 E. 47th Street New York, NY 10017 I phoned, and was given the phone number (201) 562-3812, so I guess the offices have moved lately. I left my name and number. Lo and behold, the next day I got a call from the office, they had looked up our company name (Mitel), found it, and had the information sitting in front of them. A quick note on my companys letterhead was all that I needed to get a copy of this information. Thanks! John Stewart. Computer Internetworking Manager, Mitel Corp. ---------------------------------------> Hope this info can get you somewhere. |~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Norman J.

Joe and Peter,
> Fujitsu-Xerox has vendor id 08-00-37-xx-xx-xx.
It seems you are confused by the similar name. Fuji-Xerox has
the address. Fuji-Xerox sells Xerox products in Japan.
Fujitsu is one of the major mainframe manufactulars in Japan.
They have the address 00:00:0E:XX:XX:XX.
However, they violate the rule based on the
IEEE 48bit globally assigned address. They use their local address rather than
the global address. To correct the problem, we requested them to
store the unique address in ROM on each ethernet interface. ROM provides
fail safe mechanism.
Until they correct the problem, we will continue to reject their
ethernet products.
