Why do you want to do host based filtering in your LAN at all?
I hope, the gateway into the internet is filtering, is it?
Then I think, you will not want host based filtering extra, because
to handle this securely, you need much know how, and it's only
necessary if you're assuming, that there can be attacks from inside
also.
Of course, if you're fearing for i.e. worm attacks from inside, then
host based filtering can help. But what is your concept against
malware?
Yours,
