How to Identify Device's MAC Address and Set Up IP Filter
MAC filtering is also used on enterprise wireless networks with multiple access points to create a private VLAN and prevent clients from communicating with each other. The access point can be configured to only allows clients to talk to the default gateway, but not other wireless clients. IP filtering is simply a mechanism that decides which types of IP datagrams will be processed normally and which will be discarded. By discarded we mean that the datagram is deleted and completely ignored, as if it had never been received. You use the Filter by Network Properties section to create network-related filters that tell the agent to monitor or ignore network traffic based on IP address, or domain. Enter the IP addresses, HTTP domains, FTP domains, and HTTPS domains that you want to filter on in the appropriate box. See Mac agent filter by network properties features. To help filter the results on a router type 'show ip arp?' You will see gigabitethernet' as an option this will let you filter results by interface or sub-interfaces. In my exmaple it typed 'sho ip arp gigabitEthernet 0/0.10' and that listed all IP's on my sub-interface.

This article will show you how to find the MAC address on a PC and Android device. You will find two sections explaining each one step by step, and a third section explaining how to setup a White list or Black list using the IP Filter function. The purpose of this feature on your NVR is to block unwanted incoming traffic via the device's MAC address, which is unique to that device. You can harden the security measures taken on your device by only allowing specified devices, or by blocking specified devices.

After you are 100% certain this is the MAC address of this adapter select OK. At this point you might also want to add more MAC addresses from other devices to your trusted sites, in the event that one of them might not be the correct MAC address.
4. Once the correct MAC addresses have been entered you now should select the Enable checkbox and then select OK to initiate the Trusted sites (or white list). If there are unauthorized MAC addresses contacting this device you can also use the Blocked Sites tab and circle to block MAC and other addresses.
