Another range of local MAC addresses is designated for assignment by administrators. The amendment recommends a range of local MAC addresses for use by IEEE 802? protocols.(The PDF of this standard is available at no cost to you compliments of the IEEE GET program http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/servlet/opac?punumber=8016707.

A Secure Device Identifier (DevID) is cryptographically bound to a device and supports authentication of the device?s identity. An Initial Device Identifier (IDevID) provide by the supplier of a device can be supplemented by Local Device Identifiers (LDevIDs) facilitating enrollment (provisioning of authentication and authorization credentials) by local network administrators.
