Anyone know of bridging firewall functionality to add to Fedora? Or
something else?
ebtables will let you filter at the link layer level.
If you have a powerful enough router you should be able to use point to
point routes for your machines. This will take a lot more horse power
to do than if you are using a builtin switch to move frames around.
(Though ebtables probably will kill performance as well.)
cerowrt is set up by default to route traffic instead of acting as a bridge.
However the default config expects one external IP and uses private
addresses for the internal network. So the config won't work out of
the box. It is also targeted for WNDR3800s. If you want to use something
else, you'll probably want to use openwrt instead. It has almost all of
cerowrt in it, but the default setup will be a lot different.
A wndr3800 might be fast enough for you, but the cerowrt project is
looking to pick another more powerful target router going forward. (But
doesn't seem to be picking very quickly.) On the cerowrt-devel list it
was mentioned that the wndr3800 topped out around 50mbit.
I currently have a /26 v4 allocation which I route all over inside my
network, but my ISP is only DSL and it is sssllloowww.
