I've been running a synapse server for a few years using https://github.com/spantaleev/matrix-docker-ansible-deploy
I'd highly recommend the above Ansible playbook as it makes it easy to manage not only synapse but also to manage a bunch of bridges and bots if you have the need for them. I have a bunch of rooms that are bridged to Slack for my bozo friends that refuse to use a cool open-source alternative.

If they are on the same l2 network then your options are basically either to use nginx ACLs or a local firewall on the nginx host since the traffic wont traverse the firewall.
Something like iptables -I INPUT -s 1.2.3.0/24 -j DROP on the nginx host should work
As a protective measure, you could block your local synapse server from federating with matrix.org and that should keep anybody from joining any of the giant rooms on the largest matrix server.
