The MAC address for each devices will not change but an IP address can be reused so using the MAC address for filtering means that the device will always be included whereas the device may be blocked if allocated a new IP address which has been blocked by the filter.

Which one had more overhead a router or a bridge?
a. Routers are more expensive than bridges. b. Routers operate at the first three-layers; bridges operates at the first two layers. Routers are not designed to provide direct filtering the way the bridges do. A router needs to search a routing table which is normally longer and more time consuming than a filtering table. c. A router needs to decapsulate and encapsulate the frame and change physical addresses in the frame because the physical addresses in the arriving frame define the previous node and the current router; they must be changed to the physical addresses of the current router and the next hop. A bridge does not change the physical addresses. Changing addresses, and other fields, in the frame means much unnecessary overhead.
