Dear All,
I need some help regarding using IPFW to block specific MAC addresses.
How do I block incoming traffic by a MAC address instead of an IP
address.
Can this be done using IPFW? Since I am quite new to FreeBSD, can
somebody shed some light on this issue?
Yes, it appears that ipfw(8) can do this --- check the manpage (quite a
ways down, in the RULE OPTIONS section [ about byte 45000] for full
details; note also that there may be other issues involved. Here is a
short thread on the subject from a couple of years ago:

HTH,
