This is a setup similar to a firewall for an internal network and a
DMZ.  There are several scripts and other resources here:

I chose and adapted this one for my local network and DMZ.  It has
worked well.

There are other firewall toolkits that may do something like that.
Look for SmoothWall, Shorewall, Mason, among others.
