Summary0006599: Improve airodump's --manufacturer option to view station's manufacturer
Description

Aircrack's airodump utility has an option --manufacturer:

--manufacturer        : Display manufacturer from IEEE OUI list

Currently, it shows only AP (BSSID) manufacturer, but will be come in handy to see also connected stations manufacturer.
For example, sometimes due pentesting purposes is necessary to view stations manufacturer and to not disconnecting all clients from the AP, but only one/two/etc (the most vulnerable from the point of view of Social Engineering).

For example.

Before patching:

BSSID STATION PWR Rate Lost Frames Notes Probes
XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX -54 0 - 0e 0 1 XXX,XXXXX,XXXXXX
XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX -38 0 - 0e 155 43

After:

BSSID STATION PWR Rate Lost Frames Notes Manufacturer Probes
XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX -54 0 - 0e 0 1 Hon Hai Precision Ind. Co.,Ltd. XXX,XXXXX,XXXXXX
XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX -38 0 - 0e 155 43 Liteon Technology Corporation

The following patch adds manufacturer column to the clients list. It shows STATION's manufacturer.

Additional Information

Q: - Why not upstream merge?
A: - According to this thread:

https://github.com/aircrack-ng/aircrack-ng/issues/1023#issuecomment-372062743

this patch is not needed at all from point of view of aircrack dev :=D

But some hackers will found it useful.

You are incorrect. If you look at the last 2 comments in the ticket, the option was added: --manufacturer.

That was in 2013:
