Help with "Local Device" type?

I assumed that I could create a device in Indigo with type "Local Device" and the MAC address of my phone and then potentially get notified when the device comes and goes from the LAN.

I created the device. It shows with state "Inactive" all the time, even as my phone is connected to the LAN. I tried running 'arp -a' on my server machine and I do see my cellphone's MAC in the output. I would have thought that was what it took to be deemed "Active".

Am I doing something wrong? How is this supposed to work?

Network Devices 2.2.3
Indigo 7.2.0

Doh!

Disregard. I am am apparently unable to type a 12-char string without mis-transcribing. ...and I checked it three times and someone was BLIND my own error. Sorry for the false alarm. Plugin is working fine now.
