[iptables] Sharing torified internet connection through ethernet cable

Hello

Thanks to the wiki I've discovered it's possible to share internet from an interface to another. I would like to go a bit farther but I don't really know how to do so : assuming laptop L1 has two interfaces eth0 and wlan0, is it possible to set it so it only allows traffic through TOR through wlan0 and any traffic through eth0 ? It would allow me to connect a laptop L2 via an Ethernet cable to L1.

Actually L1 is my former laptop and L2 my new laptop. I want to make a safe install of GNU/Linux on L2 and maximise the confidentiality. Using Tor can be interesting in that case, but I will stillhave to change its mac address, hiding its hostname and so on :-)

Actually I think we have to properly configure iptables but sadly I don't understand the syntax of iptables rules

I'm not really familiar with tor, but AFAIK tor traffic look like normal HTTPS traffic so it's not really easy to distinguish between them.
You should maybe look more towards a proxy.
