Well ... they are broadcast responses to requests for DHCP leases. Typical on cable-modem links, and no big deal. You don't need help, as they are harmless and normal (as is DENYing them).

You can disable logging of these messages, but how to do that varies from one LEAF variant to another, and you don't mention which variant (and which drop-in firewall, if you are not using its default) you are using.
