MAC.address (development version)

MAC.address 0.1.0

  • get_MAC() now works on Linux, macOS and Windows and returns a named vector of addresses per interface, instead of the raw ifconfig output.
  • search_MAC() supports hyphen and Cisco dotted notation, requires a consistent separator inside each address and no longer matches pieces of longer hexadecimal strings. New normalize and unique arguments.
  • New normalize_MAC(), is_MAC() and is_local_MAC().
  • New get_oui_registry() and lookup_vendor() to identify the manufacturer using the IEEE MA-L, MA-M and MA-S registries.
  • New get_arp_table(): IP and MAC addresses of the neighbors in the ARP cache (Linux, macOS, Windows).
  • New is_multicast_MAC(), random_MAC() and eui64_MAC() (IPv6 modified EUI-64 identifier and link-local address).
  • search_MAC(sep = character()) searches only the Cisco dotted notation.
  • Removed the magrittr and stringr dependencies.
  • First CRAN release.
