Are you talking about capture filter?
Unfortunately the capture filter syntax is different from display filter 
syntax.
The capture filter
  not ether dest ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
should exclude broadcast packets.

If you talk about capture filter you can use
  ether host aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff
to get only packets from/to the specified host.
