Wolfgang,

usually there are two ways to go when you want to protect a GW:
    1) make it invisible (want you are trying to do)
    2) make it inaccessible = set it a private network, accessible only 
via the proxy; from outside, only private, unroutable/useless IPs will 
be visible ;)

basically the major factor is if you control the GW or not...

regards,
bogdan
