The client process, bpcd, is normally run from xinetd/inetd, so you
could restrict access there. You can also run bpcd as a standalone
process, and it looks like you can restrict it there. From the bpcd
man page, NBU 5.1:
-restrict_if host_or_ip
Available only on UNIX clients and implies -standalone. Spec-
ifies the local network interface that bpcd will accept con-
nections from. Default is to accept connections from all
local network interfaces. You can specify either a host name
or an IP address.
