Hmm. The whole setup is supposed to physically divide two networks,

prevent *any* network access from outside into the secure part of the
network. This is the (strongly simplified) topology:
This is really more of a security-question than clustering (IMO).
Have you thought about a so called "air-gap" device, like Whale
(www.whalecommunications.com) makes them?
It uses a SCSI-switch to "shuttle" data between two networks.
