eui48

A Rust library to represent and parse IEEE EUI-48 also known as MAC-48 media access control addresses. The IEEE claims trademarks on the names EUI-48 and EUI-64, in which EUI is an abbreviation for Extended Unique Identifier.

Usage

Add this to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]

eui48 = "0.4.6"

and this to your crate root:

extern crate eui48;

Examples

To create a new MAC address and print it out in canonical form:

extern crate eui48;
use eui48::{MacAddress, Eui48};

fn main() {
	let eui: Eui48 = [ 0x12, 0x34, 0x56, 0xAB, 0xCD, 0xEF ];
	let mac = MacAddress::new( eui );

	println!("{}", mac.to_canonical());
	println!("{}", mac.to_hex_string());
	println!("{}", mac.to_dot_string());
	println!("{}", mac.to_hexadecimal());
	println!("{}", mac.to_interfaceid());
	println!("{}", mac.to_link_local());

	let mac = MacAddress::parse_str( "01-02-03-0A-0b-0f" ).expect("Parse error {}");
	let mac = MacAddress::parse_str( "01:02:03:0A:0b:0f" ).expect("Parse error {}");
	let mac = MacAddress::parse_str( "0102.030A.0b0f" ).expect("Parse error {}");
	let mac = MacAddress::parse_str( "0x1234567890ab" ).expect("Parse error {}");
}
