No, I just have a single subnet. But I don't have much confidence that the hardware firewall on my very old nat router is impervious to attacks from the "outside". So, my intention with that ubuntu firewall was to simply limit the number of ports that were open and to only accept traffic on those ports from the local subnet. This is dubious logic, I know, but what's the alternative?
