Yes, that is one way to do it.  The ""other way(s) have to do with ACCEPTing vs redirecting to another chain for additional testing.

Yes you will need a rule (or FORWARD policy) to not forward or DROP packets.  I would put this at the end of your FORWARD chain (or at least the section that does your MAC to IP pairing) after you have decided what MAC IP pairs to allow through.  Explicitly allow what you want to get out and then DROP or REJECT the rest of the chaff.

iptables -t filter -A FORWARD -i eth1 -o eth0 -j DROP

> Thanks in advance

No problem.
