Also don't for get that IP directed broadcast is configured on the interface that the broadcast is headed for. It is treated as a unicast until that point... so in answer to your question either turn off IP directed broadcast on the destination network port or secure it with an access-list.

When asked to prevent Smurf Attack, should I disable
ip directed-broadcast on all interface or only
ethernet interface?
