MAC address types for Rust

Latest Version Latest Version Build Status Coverage Status Minimum rustc version Apache 2.0 OR MIT licensed unsafe forbidden

This crate provides types for a MAC address identifiers, both in IEEE EUI-48 and EUI-64 formats.

It is like a std::net::SocketAddr enum with a std::net::SocketAddrV4 and std::net::SocketAddrV6 members, but for MAC addresses instead.

Obviously, MAC address can be represented as a [u8; 6] or [u8; 8], but it is error-prone and inconvenient, so here they are — MacAddr6 and MacAddr8 structs with helpful methods and standard Rust traits implementations, intended to be the first-class Rust objects.

And it is serde- and no_std-friendly also!

Installation

Add this to your Cargo.toml

[dependencies]
macaddr = "1.0"

Usage

Check out the documentation for each type available, all of them have a plenty of examples.
