I have traced a smurf attack to my Max.

Someone sends an echo request to my broadcast.

I have a max4000 with 6.1.7 installed.
I have set  Reply DirectedBcast Ping=No
       and  Forward Directed Bcast=No
       and  ICMP redirects = ignore

but I have continually packet of 1k of echo-request

How I can stop thats ?

Thanks
