Open http://142.103.107.138/NetworksPage.html and you will see 
links "Extant Network" and "Proposed Network".

I tried the Proposed Network with a bridge as you explained.
Connectivity for Dalton and Carnot was as intended.  Oddly, 
Cantor remained connected to the LAN but lost connectivity to 
the Internet; as if masquerading had failed.  Further ideas and 
suggestions are welcome.  Also the Shorewall list might help.

I'll guess that routing can achieve a result similar to bridging 
in this case.  Bridging is more efficient?

Some of the details in the configurations listings are probably 
outdated.  I'll review and update as time is available.
