You can use either routing/forwarding or bridging for this problem,

If instead, you further subnettted 192.168.1 with a /25 on the PCs (but still a /24 on the router), the Router/Firewall wouldn't have to know about the other subnet. It could just blythly ass-u-me that the end-PC was on the same network segment as the middle PC. So long as the middle PC was configured with a static, public ARP entry for the IP of the end PC, and had ip_forwarding enabled, it would "front" for the end PC.

Hi Rick,

That's a nice tip.

How does the middle PC setup the static, public ARP entry? Arptables? Example?

Very curious about how this is done.
