How to trace a MAC or IP throughout site?

Is there a way using some historical log that we can trace a ...MAC, since IP is in a DHCP range, as it transverses a network.

Say someone has an IPAD, and are connected to AP, as they walk throughout the building can I see a log such as this

MAC AP Associated Disassociated
00:11:22:33:44:55 AP-Rm103 4/27/16 9:02
00:11:22:33:44:55` AP-Rm100 4/26/16 13:01 4/27/16 8:05
00:11:22:33:44:55 AP-Lab 4/26/16 9:00 4 /26/16 18:06

Or something close to this.

We are using Cisco Prime v3.0

Hi,

Since you have prime you could just type that MAC address in the search filed on the top right hand side to get in to client details (otherwise you can navigate to "Monitor -> Monitoring tools - > Client and Users" to access the same). then if you can select your client and click on more to get few options to trace/get the history. See the attached snapshot

You'd have to have controllers synched up to get the relevant details though.
