Okay - I obviously don't know enough about what ebtables does. I thought it was the equivalent of iptables but down at the ethernet layer. It obviously has some capabilities at the higher networking layers as well, so there's a bigger overlap between ebtables and iptables than I had thought. Maybe some ebtables expert out there can help with this ? Antony.
