The third column after executing the displays the vendor recognized by arp-scan. In the case of (Unknown), it means that arp-scan is unable to recognize it.

From nta-monitor.com:

If you find a system that arp-fingerprint reports as UNKNOWN, and you know what operating system it is running, please send details of the operating system and fingerprint to [email protected] so I can include it in future versions. Please include the exact version of the operating system if you know it, as fingerprints sometimes change between versions.
