I'm not sure how to do this unfortunately.

The only thought is to firewall it out from all other interfaces except 'lo' and the desired interface.

Hello,We have a firewall running on this machine, but if something happens to the firewall, the access to the web agents is exposed to the public interfaces and not only to the interface which is connected with the companys network. Another bad habit of the software is, that they list all interfaces of the machine on the login screen. Another piece of information to the bad guys.
