How do you prevent packets from your network with a broadcast address,
since 
what defines a "broadcast" address really depends on the subnet mask?

Filter all the blue wavelengths on your FDDI and OC3 interfaces.

Maybe I don't posses your intellectual prowess.  Please explain what blue
wavelengths are in regard to this.  Thanks...
