What do you mean by "directed broadcast"?
@Jakob-AHHG and @sbabu directed broadcast I mean a broadcast to the whole subnet (not entire network).
HI @jefazo92
If you have a broadcast IP address you can create a firewall policy with deny action and place it top of allow rule.
Ok, so you want to disable some of the most basic features of the network?
Broadcast is only on the subnet, never anywhere else, unless you have a router that relay the broadcast across subnets, like Bonjour traffic or something like that.
The only reason to do so, as I see it, is to disable 'client-to-client' communication, on public wifi or similar.
THat should be easily done with the "Block intra-VLAN traffic" setting on the VLAN or "Block intra-SSID traffic" on the SSID.
