No, it filters traffic based on certain set rules.
A switch uses MAC address to forward frames while a router uses IP addresses.

Switches and Bridges
Most of the time you use a router between two networks. You can also use a bridge but bridges are most likely software based. Routers are hardware based or "appliances".
Stateless Packet Filters
That is called an IP address, and is made up usually based off of location, and your internet service provider (ISP)IP address is the logical address which serves as Identity for the Host device on a Network.
The address of a default gateway can vary widely depending on which device on which network is the default gateway. There isn't one specific default gateway address.A popular address is one used on home based networks, 192.168.1.1
MAC Filtering
Packet filters may be applied to incoming data before capture, or to store data after capture. Decodes may be applied to packets in the trace buffer. Alarms may be set to flag unusual network events or conditions. Packet filters display various statistical reports and graphs based on traffic analysis.
A person can send picture messages from a PC to a mobile device by using their carrier based email address. This comes in the form of their ten digit phone number followed by the carrier's messaging address.
Screen filters are generally made of a (metal) mesh of some sort, their filtration grade is course, collecting large particles, typically a few millimetres (sometime perhaps 1/10th of a mm) in size or greater. Whilst paper filters are normally based on paper fibres combined together to form a very fine filter material, capable of filtering particles that are sub-micron (less than a 1/1000th of a mm) in size. Most HEPA filters for example are paper-based filters.
