Simple example 2 interfaces balanced backend limited to a vlan routed
gateway:

stream {
  error_log  logs/stream_error_smtp.log;

  upstream backendsmtp {
    server 192.168.28.21:25;
    server 192.168.28.22:25;
    server 192.168.28.23:25;
  }

  server {
    listen 25;
    proxy_connect_timeout 30s;
    proxy_timeout 30s;
    proxy_pass backendsmtp;
    allow 192.168.29.1;
    deny  all;
  }

}
