Hey chap,

 From what I can remember, a smurf attack is icmp and udp echo and echo
replies sent to network and broadcast (0 and 255) addresses.

So something along the lines of:-

access-list 100 deny icmp 0.0.0.255 255.255.255.0 any echo
access-list 100 deny icmp 0.0.0.255 255.255.255.0 any echo-reply
access-list 100 deny icmp 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 any echo
access-list 100 deny imcp 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 any echo-reply
access-list 100 deny udp 0.0.0.255 255.255.255.0 any echo
access-list 100 deny udp 0.0.0.255 255.255.255.0 any echo-reply
access-list 100 deny udp 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 any echo
access-list 100 deny udp 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 any echo-reply

You might want to double check that what I think is a smurf attack actually
is a smurf attack !!!
