I'm setting up LEAF (Bering uClib 2.0) for a new condo with in-the-wall ethernet and lots of tech-savvy visitors some of whom run virus hosts from Redmond. I want vistors to be able to plug their laptops into any jack in the wall, including jacks that may be used by members of the household. But I don't want to allow them the same priveleges as "known" hosts, esp. access to other hosts on the LAN.
Basically, I want to offer DHCP leases on eth1, and if the MAC address is unknown to put it in an effective dmz that's only allowed access to the WAN via eth0. This would be trivial to do if I had an eth2, but there's only one jack at each location so I can't just add a new NIC. I'd also like to refuse connections to static IP addresses that happen to be in the right range so that folks have to go through dhcp. Is this possible using Bering? Any suggestions where to start reading on how to set it up? The hardware in this case is a Soekris box (boot medium is a CF card), so I'm not limited to a floppy-based distro; but I use Bering everywhere else and want to keep things compatible.
