Like "I need to forward only frames from some MAC addresses | in a firewall". The answer might not involve bridging at all... In fact, I'm evaluating how to implement rbridge : http://www.postel.org/rbridge/, which is a mix of bridging and routing. The latest specifications (IETF draft) are available here: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-trill-rbridge-protocol-08 I am in a very preliminary phase, trying to learn how to implement routing and bridging under Linux. In order for the routing protocol to have proper topology view, it somehow needs to assign a unique IP on all interfaces and for bridging and those interfaces needs to be in the same bridge. Maybe I am wrong in those assumptions, but here is the explanation on my previous questions.
