Is this scenario possible with ebtables/iptables?

Hi list,
I'm new to ebtables and bridging at all so please be patience.
 
I have to implement a scenario and I would like to know if this is possible with ebtables:
 
I have a network of client computers. There is also a file server located in the same network.
 
-------------------------------------------------- 192.168.0.0/24
   |          |         |              |
Client A   Client B    ...         file server
 
To increase the security of my server I want to use a bridging firewall between clients and this server like this:
 
                               |
-------------------------------|------------------ 192.168.0.0/24
   |          |         |      |       |
Client A   Client B    ...     |    file server
                            Firewall
 
This firewall sould do bridging between the clients and the server AND control the access to the server, which should be src-ip/port, dst-ip/port based (iptables?).
 
Is this scenario possible with ebtables?
 
Thanks for your comments!
 
Kind regards,
Thomas
