If I am not mistaken, (but I am definitely not a linux expert) you need
ebtables to configure
Filters at layer2.
Check out http://ebtables.sourceforge.net

Dear all,

A week ago I started building a GenII and I am facing a problem with 
iptables. The honeywall is based on a 2.4.10-17 kernel, which I 
patched, reconfigured for supporting netfilter in bridging mode and 
recompiled. I have 2 interfaces (with no IPs) in the honeywall and my 
honeypot is communicating throught the bridge-honeywall with the 
internal network with no problems.

The problem is that configuring iptables has no effect to the traffic 
that passes through the honeywall (I have tried to drop everything and 
nothing happened). The installed version of iptables is 1.2.3 (quite 
old as the kernel).

Any ideas? Is there an alternative for testing that iptables works in 
layer 2?

Thank you in advance,

Christos
