What we want to do is control which servers on the segment talk among
themselves.

Shimon Silberschlag

There is basicaly only one way to do it: Install firewalls (or packet filters)
in the different DMZs. It would look like (in good old ASCII art):

    |
    |  Uplink to the Internet
    |
 Firewall
    |
   DMZ public
    |
 Firewall
    |
    |  "Downlink"
    |


   DMZ private

have an

The servers need to talk to other servers outside the segment;

its the internet, downlink the backend servers.
Some of the servers need to be able to talk among them.

^-- from here on it is not clear which servers are which servers are
on which
link they are.

We want to control which server can talk to which other server (in
the
segment), utilizing one of the firewalls (lets say the uplink
one).
Can the group suggest ways to accomplish that? We thought about
using
L2 switches with "private VLAN", L3 switches with ACL, but
constantly
come across problems doing the routing properly.
