From iptables(8):

Code:

   mac

       --mac-source [!] address

              Match   source   MAC   address.    It   must   be  of  the  form

              XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX.  Note that this only makes sense for  packets

              coming from an Ethernet device and entering the PREROUTING, FOR‐

              WARD or INPUT chains.
