Excellent articles in there...
You can also set-up a Proxy-ARP firewall. This is basically a router but there is no
need to set up/modify a gateway setting in the internal machines, all traffic passes
through the router transparently (as in the bridge, but now switching is done at IP
level -- i.e. "true" routing).
The pros: it's easier to set-up than the bridge code. there's no need to patch
kernel code and/or commandline tools
The cons: slightly lower throughput, slightly lower security... but easier ;-)
