MAC Address Generator
What is a MAC Address Generator?
Generate single or batch random MAC addresses. Customize Organizationally Unique Identifier (OUI) vendor prefixes, character case (uppercase vs lowercase), and delimiter formats (colon `:`, hyphen `-`, dot `.`, or plain hex).
Why Use This Tool?
- Software & QA Testing: Generate test MAC addresses for virtual machines, network emulators, and unit tests.
- Network Privacy: Generate random MAC address strings for MAC spoofing testing.
- Bulk MAC List Generation: Create bulk lists of 100+ valid MAC addresses.
How to Use
- Select Quantity (e.g. `10`) and Delimiter Format (`:`, `-`, `.`, or none).
- Optionally specify a custom 6-character OUI Vendor Prefix.
- Click Generate and copy generated MAC address list.
Real Working Example
