But to protect your own network, all you need is the access rule I gave.
You know your own broadcast address and netmask, and can put in a rule to
block.
You just can't block the presumed broadcast address used by other peoples
networks.
Logging attempted attacks which are blocked can't really be done with a
cisco. You need something to monitor the line coming in.
