I followed this to encapsulate an EUI-48 in an EUI-64 http://standards.ieee.org/regauth/oui/tutorials/EUI64.html and I followed this to generate an EUI-48 from an IAB or OUI block. http://standards.ieee.org/regauth/oui/tutorials/EUI48.html The econotags are using Redwire's IAB. -Mar. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Make an app they can't live without Enter the BlackBerry Developer Challenge http://p.sf.net/sfu/RIM-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Linux-zigbee-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-zigbee-devel
