Network Shenanigans in MacOS Mojave
This afternoon I was doing some network maintenance around the house. While inspecting all of my wireless clients, I happened to find a host that I didn't recognize (I name all of my hosts with Aliases in my Ubiquiti network and this guy stuck out like a sore thumb being named with just a MAC address).

In this case it was A8:1B:6A which maps to Texas Instruments.
