WHOISMAC(1)

hey bestie!! πŸ’– welcome to WHOISMAC β€” that's WHOISMAC(1), living in the User Commands part of the manual, and yeah she's a whole icon. let's get into it, no cap.

πŸŽ€ NAME πŸŽ€

whoismac β€” it's the hcx tools set. that's the vibe. periodt. πŸ‘‘


🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

okay so, first thing, the version stamp on this girl:

whoismac 7.1.2 (C) 2026 ZeroBeat

and the usage line is literally:

usage: whoismac <options>

that's it, that's the whole entrance. main character energy fr fr. ✨

and the options?? here they are, every single one, i'm not skipping a thing because you deserve the full set 🫢

  • -d β€” download. specifically, it pulls from https://standards-oui.ieee.org/oui/oui.txt and saves it to ~/.hcxtools/oui.txt. ⚠️ heads up bestie: internet connection required. no wifi, no oui, you know how it is 😭
  • -m <mac> β€” take a mac, either the mac (that's six bytes of mac addr) or the oui (that's the fist three bytes of mac addr β€” and yes, "fist" is what the manpage says, i'm not touching it, it's iconic πŸ’€)
  • -p <hashline> β€” input PMKID and/or EAPOL hashline (hashmode 22000 or 16800)
  • -P <hashline> β€” input EAPOL hashline from potfile (hashcat <= 5.1.0)
  • -e <ESSID> β€” input ESSID
  • -x <xdigit> β€” input ESSID in hex
  • -v <vendor> β€” vendor name
  • -h β€” this help screen πŸ’… (press it when you're lost, it's giving safety net)
and bestie, i have to tell you: the original page lists that entire options block twice, plus the usage: whoismac <options> line twice, all over again. same options, same everything. i'm telling you because i promised i'd keep every detail, but you only need to read it once. we're re-reading it together for emotional support 🌈

that's the whole entire page, you ate it, you understood it, i'm obsessed with you πŸ’œ


and for the outro, cuteness only: this whole thing is whoismac 7.1.2, (C) 2026 ZeroBeat, and it was dated July 2026. that's the sign-off, mwah, go run whoismac -h and slay πŸ§šπŸ’–
