Currently, there is no hardware being employed to resolve this issue.
I was hoping to do this with the firewall built-in to MacOS. My friend's current network gear does not support this type of filtering.
If it cannot be done with ipfw, I may need to compile ipfilter for him, or he'll need to reconsider upgrading his switch to something that supports this feature.
ipfw ships with MacOS 10.5 or better. This is why my post was in "OS X (Apple)" rather than networking.

So, I've been told and heard a million times that malloc and free are expensive calls to be avoided. So many times I avoid malloc by reusing already allocated memory blocks. Store them on free lists somewhere myself and don't call free when I know malloc will be called very shortly thereafter.

networks(4) Kernel Interfaces Manual networks(4)
NAME
networks - Contains network name information
SYNOPSIS
/etc/networks
DESCRIPTION
The networks file contains information about the known networks that comprise the DARPA (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency) Inter-
net. Each network is represented by a single line in the networks file. The format for the entries in the networks file is as follows:
Name Number Aliases
The fields contain the following: The official network name. The network number. The unofficial names used for the network.
Items on a line are separated by one or more spaces or tab characters. Comments begin with a # (number sign). Routines that search the
networks file do not interpret characters from the beginning of a comment to the end of that line. Network numbers are specified in dot-
ted-decimal notation. A network name can contain any printable character except a field delimiter, newline character, or comment character
(#).
The networks file is normally created from the official network database maintained at the Network Information Center (NIC). The file may
need to be modified locally to include unofficial aliases or unknown networks.
