This tool takes a standard 48-bit MAC address and converts it into a link-local IPv6 address using the EUI-64 process, allowing you to see how IPv6 hosts self-generate addresses on local networks.
IPv4 addresses are typically assigned dynamically (e.g., via DHCP) and do not have a fixed relationship with MAC addresses, making direct conversion impossible. Only IPv6 supports deterministic conversion from MAC to IP using standard rules.
The process involves inverting the seventh bit of the MAC address, inserting "ff:fe" in the middle, and formatting the result as an IPv6 link-local address with the "fe80::" prefix, following the EUI-64 standard.
No, this converter generates a likely link-local IPv6 address based on the input MAC address, but it cannot find or verify currently assigned IPs on your network. That requires advanced network scanning software or router access.
The "fe80::" prefix is reserved for link-local IPv6 addresses, which are used by devices for communication within the same local network segment, following the official IPv6 standard.
