Are you sure it's tinc looping the packets? Couldn't it be one of your
clients who have a loop in their network? A filter in tinc would
probably not even help against this.
I don't think it would be a good idea in general. A filter in tinc is
likely to result in unexpected behaviour, as it is no longer behaves as
a plain switching network.

Hello,
Have you tried to use Spanning Tree Protocol ? Perhaps this could help.
And for filtering you should watch on ebtables for linux station...

I use STP on all linux bridges. But tinc acts as a bridge itself (in
switching mode) and i don't know yet how broadcasts are handled there. I
agree, ebtables is great for filtering on the ethernet layer, i use it
whenever i can. Sadly it is only available on linux. Thanks for the
tips, though.
