Well, a transparent bridge would not have IP addresses assigned to the
interfaces in the bridge. Since you are trying to filter by the interface,
and not an IP address, I think that qualifies as "transparent filtering",
someone correct me if I'm wrong. Do your interfaces have addresses
assigned? If not, assign them, and try filtering on that.
