I am interested in creating a pathological lab network with the following forwarding rules: - three networks (A,B,C) - packets from A or C are forwarded to B - packets from B are forward to both A and C I was thinking of using BRIDGE+ipfw to create this by hacking bridge.c so that all dsts are UNKNOWN, then filtering via ipfw by deny ip from A to C deny ip from C to A Seems like this would work, but I was wondering what others' thoughts might be on this approach. Perhaps BRIDGE could have a (compile-time?) non-learning flag so that all packets get forwarded as if they are UNKNOWN. Oh, btw, I also want tcpdump to work on any of these interfaces. ;-) Thanks.
