Hello,

I want to setup layer7 filter (http://l7-filter.sourceforge.net/) on a 
Linux box that will be transparent to the network. I have looked up 
transparent bridging any have found several ways to do this but non 
mention layer7 filter. Some like ebtables (ebtables.sourceforge.net) 
make it seem like you can not do this ?

Has any one done this yet ? If so can you provide some pointers.

Thanks

Michael

Try taking a look at EBTables (bridging) with "Bridged IP/ARP packets filtering" enabled in the kernel as well as the Layer7 patch.  I think this will allow you to use the IPTables rules to see bridged traffic and thus you can run the layer 7 filter against it.
