This is very common in in-room network access for the hospitality
market. Basically when the customer plugs in their lap top you answer
any arp, you pretend to be any gateway, you capture the next HTTP
session and re-direct it to the billing application running on the
server. A friend of mine calls this NEET (Network Etthernet
Encapsulation and Translation).
I suggest you put your NIC in promiscuous mode and implement the MAC
(ESA) filtering in your own code.
