888 APPENDIX G: ADDING MAC ADDRESS VENDOR TRANSLATIONS
The fields are defined as follows:
<MAC address> is the first three bytes of the MAC address, in
hexadecimal format. For example, 000102
<vendor> is the vendor’s name. Single spaces are allowed,
however two or more consecutive spaces will be interpreted as a
separator between the <vendor> and <description> fields. For
example, 3Com-Corporation is valid, but 3Com--Corporation is
not (where “-” indicates a space character).
<description> is a field where you can provide your own
description of the translation. Network Director does not use
this field.
Lines beginning with a “#” character are considered to be
comments and are ignored.
For example, the following would be a valid vendor translation:
000102 3Com 3COM CORPORATION
