    Create your own vm and setup iptables?

    An extra VM is not a bad idea as @MikHo mentioned already; if you want something that just runs off the bat you may try m0n0wall or pfSense.
    I think setting up the network and internal routing will be a lot of fun in this kind of set-up.

  • yes - i want to create a vm. normally would use cisco/juniper/fortinet box but cant in this situation. pfsense was one product coming up in my searches also sophos utm essential firewall.

    pfSense seems nice the few times I have used it; it has been up for around 3 months protecting my home setup and cannot fault it (loving the dual wan!).

    If you are using esx or vsphere there are virtual appliances to download from vmware marketplace or turnkey linux (if i remember correct).
