Ed,
Create a workstation object with the address
of x.y.z.255 or 255.255.255.255 and create a
rule stating that traffic destined for the
'broadcast' object should be dropped, not
logged.
Stephen Mack posted:
I have a host object 0.0.0.255 with a subnet of 0.0.0.255 that
will catch broadcasts of type *.*.*.255. (Ignore the error when
creating this object.) We use this to catch and ignore classC
broadcasts. It should be possible to modify this to catch other
subnets.
