You should create an object of your data like:

public class Device
{
  public string mac {get;set;}
  public string model {get;set;}
}

then change your controller's action method like this and pass your object to this method from consume

public void Post(Device deviceData)
{
    // You can extract data like deviceData.mac, deviceData.model etc
    data.Add(deviceData);
}

You can use one of the popular library json.net for serialize/deserialize of json object in C#
