Their frames are # SWITCHED between bridge ports, never routed — so they never traverse the # netfilter path where an L3 ACL lives. The ACL is not wrong, it simply never # sees this traffic. # # The bridge family DOES see it. Its forward hook fires exactly when a frame is # passed from one bridge port to another — which, on boxnet, means box→box # and nothing else: frames addressed to the gateway are delivered locally (the # INPUT hook), and so is anything being routed out to the internet. So dropping # every forwarded frame on this bridge isolates the boxes from one another and # costs them nothing else.
