I know its layer 3 ... my point is that FreeBSD's bridge supports IPFW, and IPFW allows for some IP-related things ...filtering by source IP, destination IP, etc. etc. But in the man page for ipfw, it says that the "forward" command in ipfw is not supported on layer 2 (bridging, etc.). So I was wondering if there was a way to forward specific IP traffic without using NAT or routing (just strictly bridging). Someone on IRC mentioned that its possible, but would require a custom program....
