guys,
  hope you can help.  i'm very new at bridging in linux.  i want to setup
a very simple bridge, to protect a machine that has web access, but no
access controls.  its not a computer, but an audio/video device.  with
that being the case, i need something to police access to the web
interface.  a transparent bridge filtering ip and mac addresses seems good
enough.  but i have a question about running on the bridge itself.  right
now i just have 2 nics in the box, both are bound into br0.  would it be
better practice to have a 3rd nic, run an ip-less bridge, bind ssh to the
third nic, and administer the box that way??  or just assign an ip to br0
and come in over the bridge interface?  i have tried it with 2 nics, and
can't seem to figure out the correct iptables rules.  has anyone tried
this???  can anyone provide some iptables examples maybe?  or just a
general helpful best practice hints.  thanks a bunch

jason
