In a case you have its C source it is possible to add any
filtering code you need - providing it is easy enough to
write code which finds the info used by the filtering in
an IP packet (need info on IP packet structure).
The question is: is it easier to disable unwanted features
of router on Linux, or add wanted features to a bridge?

I used the bridge with two cards only, but I assume it can
work with more cards without a problem. After all, there
is its source, and it is not hard to change definitions.
