¿Puedes identificar un dispositivo por su dirección MAC?

Can you identify a device by its MAC address?

MAC addresses can sometimes be used to identify the maker and potentially model of the device even without the device in hand. This is called the OUI (organizationally unique identifier).

If assigned by the manufacturer, a MAC address usually encodes the manufacturer’s registered identification number. It may also be known as an Ethernet hardware address (EHA), hardware address, adapter address, or physical address.

The easiest way to ping a MAC address on Windows is to use the “ping” command and to specify the IP address of the computer you want to verify. Whether the host is contacted, your ARP table will be populated with the MAC address, thus validating that the host is up and running.

Open your router’s mobile app and look for a tab that lists all the devices connected to your network. It might say Devices or Device Manager. If your router doesn’t come with a companion app, try a free Wi-Fi analyzer app to monitor connected devices and the security of your network.

Re: can identify device own by mac address? No that is not possible, you can only lookup the manufacturer and their address possibly in a database but not who owns, bought the device or is currently using it.
