I was wondering if blocking was possible in passive mode?  

Given that I'm installing this on an old spare PC, I would rather my
network not rely on this as a gateway.  However, at a past job we had a
content filter that could be placed on a true hub that internet traffic
passed through.  Through MAC spoofing it was able to passively monitor
and block.  

Granted, this wasn't ideal.  If the machine was 'too busy' or failed,
traffic was allowed to pass.  It sure beat the alternative of the
organization having the WAN link dropped.

Thanks, in advance--
