i would do it this way:
iptables -N check_mac
iptables -A check_mac -m mac --mac-source $MAC1 -j RETURN
iptables -A check_mac -m mac --mac-source $MAC2 -j RETURN
# iptables -A check_mac -j LOG --log-prefix "INVALID MAC: "
iptables -A check_mac -j DROP
iptables -A INPUT -j check_mac
iptables -A FORWARD -j check_mac
and then put your regular filter rules in INPUT and FORWARD after the
jump to check_mac; as only packets with either $MAC1 or $MAC2 will ever
make it out of the check_mac chain.
