ARP and broadcasts don't route so how it gets through your firewall is beyond me. Unless your machine is a bridge or something it shouldn't pass to other network cards.

Subject: Filter ARP and Broadcasts


I have noticed my production subnets broadcasts and ARP request are
leaking into my DMZ.  My goal is to keep the DMZ clean of all but
necessary communication.  Is their a way to filter ARP and broadcasts? 
If so could you please give syntax.  Thanks for any help you may give.
