Hi All,

I would like to find out from experts in the meantime try doing it
myself.

We have a busy LAN and to protect some (primitive) mainframe ethernet
interfaces (these interfaces are giving problems due to excessive
traffic flowing to them)  it's planned to have a router (bridge/filter
OR whatever) which can route only IP traffic destined to and from
mainframes. But we do not have network subnetted and have all our
servers/mainframe and workstations on the same IP network.

Is it possible to have a FreeBSD system with two network interfaces
bridging mainframe and the rest of the network statically routing IP
packets from on side to another. one side is the whole network and other
side are couple of mainframe ethernet interfaces (not more than 4).

Thanks in advance...

Prashant.
