 I had a situation where I wanted to control access from one virtual to the others on the network. It could have been done via NAT, but the eventual goal is to have several virtual machines which can not "see" each other, and did now want to go building several virtual networks. So, I researched ebtables.

 Since a bridge forwards, the filtering is done under the FORWARD rule.

+Win10 is a //virtual// inside our network. We need to be able to access it from //manage//, and also it needs to access the Internet via //router//. We also want to access //Win10// via RDP over VPN. However, //Win10// should not 'see' anything else on our network.
+ebtables works with MAC addresses, so we track the MAC's. The above MAC's are samples randomly chosen from those assigned for some forms of virtualization; use your own MAC addresses.
+Basically, we add rules to allow access between //Win10// and //router//, and //Win10// and //manage//, then we add rules to not allow any other access.
+Not sure why, but we need protocols 0x800 and 0x806 (IPv4 and ARP) specifically allowed to the router or this will not work. You can still access from //manage// but not over a VPN connection. Still researching that.
