Commandline client to lookup MAC vendor



Hi!

Several packages in Debian can somehow (either by embedding it or
querying it from some common database) display the MAC Vendor
information of network adapters (derived from hardware addresses). 

One example is nmap, that displays the device vendor when scanning.

Is there some commandline tool doing this directly in Debian? I know
that there are websites that offer this as a service, but sometimes a
CLI is more convenient.

Alternatively, and if this information is stored in some shared
databases, can this be queried e.g. from a Pyhton script? If so, how?

TIA
