No.  That accomplishes nothing in terms of security.

But as far as I can tell, the web software doesn't give me that choice;  
it's an all-or-nothing server.  I did not install the software (and 
spend considerable time configuring it) for someone else, I installed it 
for *me*.  I want to view both networks, and I want to see what services 
are running (that I'm probing) on each host on each network.

I'll want to see those at some time when it's mutually convenient. I've 
been holding up buying two more radios until I see smaller antennas in 
the flesh.
