    I'm looking to do a setup like this:

                              Net
                               |
                            Router
                               |
                           Snort Box (Doing Ethernet Bridging)
                               |
                            Switch
                               /\
                              / \
                             / \
    smb billing etc <-Private || Public Net-> www ftp mail dns

    My question is, could the snort box doing ethernet bridging actually block
    tcp/udp/icmp/etc/etc type packets coming over the network with this approach
    (freebsd or linux) even though it is transparent to the network (I might
    assign an IP for remote access).

    Thank you very much for your time,
    sponix
