I have a mac address in string form. I am interested in taking the Mac string and increasing / decreasing it by 1 value while keeping the integrity of Hex in Python
Ex: 000000001F
-1: 000000001E +1: 0000000020

1Those are not valid hex strings in python... – roippi Aug 09 '13 at 20:14

MAC addresses are 48bit and should be 12 hex digits long (instead of 10) – Thomas B. Aug 09 '13 at 21:01

Parse it, change it, print it!
def change_mac(mac, offset)
return "{:012X}".format(int(mac, 16) + offset)
