From the diagram, you just need to add two IP addresses and set up firewall rules to filter by mac address.

Or bridge the two ports on the 450G and use bridge rules to filter traffic.

"From the diagram, you just need to add two IP addresses and set up firewall rules to filter by mac address."
-thats what i tryed and dint routed. i add default route for 0.0.0.0, two interfaces ip, dhcp server, nat rule, pool.
"Or bridge the two ports on the 450G and use bridge rules to filter traffic."
-This i think im gonna try, but never done, dont even know if this envolves two diferent ip network on the interfaces.
Another question, can i access routerboard twrow gateway port using winbox?
thanks

Does mac control functions if the routerboard is in switch mode? and if so is this a good idea?
