My ISP is sending out a multicast message every 30 seconds. I would like to block all multicasts in or out of my network. On muticasts into my Leaf 2.4.11 system from anywhere on the internet I would like deny that it ever was sent. On muticast from withing my network I would like to report the error and put into log file. Would anyone care to tell me what to tell PPPd to have multicast not effect the idle timeout? This from a 33.6k dialup modem, not dsl or cable. TIA Larry Platzek larryp@inow.com
