@Roy,
That is similar with ACL on the router and easy to bypass. Users would
be able to sniff LAN, find out MAC and change it together with IP
address in the network settings. I would also add mac flooding so the
original box would be permanently out of business ;-)
The proper solution would be with 3 network cards/physical segregation
on that linux box

@Hung,
VLAN (openwrt firmware) is an another easiest option for you if you
don't like anything above.  An old Linksys wrt54g (4 Lan/100) will do.
That sounds cheap and good. And of cause it's Linux. You'd need to
learn how to white list IP addresses
because you will be doing it a lot (clouds, regular network changes, etc).
