I?ve been dealing with Polycom phones for 8 years and I?ve never seen one with a MAC address that didn?t start with 0004F2, till today . . . an old co-worker of mine sent me a picture of a Soundstation IP 4000 with a MAC address 00E075. I?ve seen thousands of these things deployed, I can?t believe I never ran into this before . . . anyone else seen this? Rob

That prefix belongs to Verilink, which purchased the NetEngine product line from Polycom in 2003. Perhaps they were manufacturing hardware for Polycom?

We had IP4000s with that OUI prefix when I was in $OLD_JOB? -- Anthony Rodgers Security Analyst Michigan Security Operations Center (MiSOC) DTMB, Michigan Cyber Security From: VoiceOps [mailto:voiceops-bounces at voiceops.org] On Behalf Of Rob Dawson Sent: Wednesday, April 08, 2015 16:26 To: voiceops at voiceops.org Subject: [VoiceOps] Never seen this on a Polycom I?ve been dealing with Polycom phones for 8 years and I?ve never seen one with a MAC address that didn?t start with 0004F2, till today . . . an old co-worker of mine sent me a picture of a Soundstation IP 4000 with a MAC address 00E075.

The 0004f2 prefix came from Circa Communications Ltd when Polycom bought them for their IP phone product and founded the SoundPoint IP line around it. At that point the SoundStation IP3000 was already a product (and I think it used 00e075, but not sure), and the IP4000 was already in development. For the first few production runs the IP4000 used the 00e075 prefix. Eventually both the SoundPoint IP and SoundStation IP products were unified on the 0004f2 prefix.
