Please inform me of the errors and I will happily correct them.

As a side note, aptools is largely untested against access points that are
not Cisco Aironets, I rely on feedback from the community (such as
yourselves) to suggest any improvements.

Thanks for cc'ing me,

Regarding the use of Unique MAC (OUI) addresses for WiFi APs, I've
also seen some false positives in the address ranges listed for 3Com,

Currently Kirby Kuehl is the only admin/developer listed for the project.


Here is a link to my starter list.  I have found a few false positives on
the Lucent and Compaq OUI, but for the most part, seems like a reasonable
starter list.

The BAWUG thread is less complete than the APTools list, but includes a
very important link -- the canonical list of _all_ OUI assignments:

http://standards.ieee.org/regauth/oui/oui.txt
(Warning! 'oui.txt' is a very large file!)

I'd love to see a master list of OUI's and NMAP fingerprints for all known
wireless access point products.  Perhaps the APTools CVS on SourceForge
could provide a central location for such a list?
