Re: [OT] Broadcast flood



Hello

You can use this rules in your script, you only need to change to your
broadcast address:
/sbin/iptables -t filter -A INPUT -i <Interface> -s 10.0.0.255 -j DROP
/sbin/iptables -t filter -A INPUT -i <Interface> -s 0.0.0.0 -j DROP
/sbin/iptables -t filter -A INPUT -i <Interface> -d 255.255.255.255 -j
DROP
/sbin/iptables -t filter -A INPUT -i <Interface> -d 0.0.0.0 -j DROP

For example my local network is 10.0.0.0/24 and therefore my broadcast
address is 10.0.0.255
