EUI-64 related method ?
Hi !
First of all, thank you for your amazing job !
Something you could do to enhance your library would be adding a method like :
EUI64Address(String Address, String MacAddress);
which would calculate for us a standard EUI64 address and return a formatted
result.
This would be amazing.
Thanks again and keep me informed !

Thanks.
In OSI model speak, the library is strictly layer-3 right now. Your suggestion
would imply adding some layer-2 concepts. It can be done, but all of a sudden
it would mean a lot of other things might be useful to add as well.
I'll investigate the topic and will give it some thought. Leaving this ticket
open in the mean time.
In any case, thanks for the suggestion!

Thank you !
I Am trying to implement the method myself based on this library and Will post
the code here when done.
See you soon

Was there ever any code written for this? @janvanbesien ?
No, not that I am aware of.
@janvanbesien Thanks for the reply.
For anybody else looking for this, I wrote some code to do the calculation and it can be found in a gist: https://gist.github.com/wido/23276de5d71ee79253d8a55568883519
