We have a box running as a bridge/filter between our the network our router
is on (our feed also serves another company, which has its own bridge) and
our internal LAN. Thus:
LAN <--- ether ---> {ed1 - FreeBSD - ed0} <--- ether ---> hub/router
Just have the outside world set the BSD box (ed0) as the route inward for the
internal LAN, and have LAN set the BSD box (ed1) as its default gateway.
Hope that answers the question.
