I remember I looked into this a few months back and never found a
satisfactory answer. I did find an approach to blocking a smurf attack for
class C networks. I am not sure if this is just when the router is a
"reflector" or whether a simple "no ip directed-broadcast" does the same
thing. I'd also like to further comments about this topic.

>> Extended IP access list SMURF
>> 10 deny icmp any 0.0.0.255 255.255.255.0 echo log-input
>> 20 deny icmp any 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 echo log-input
>> 30 deny icmp any 0.0.0.255 255.255.255.0 echo-reply log-input
>> 40 deny icmp any 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 echo-reply log-input
>> 50 permit ip any any
