or, just flick the allow all any any to deny and see what breaks The story of my life. 🙂 I actually did look up this subject before I asked again hoping that they had added it to the API and I just couldn't find it. I'd bet you it is there but is expensive to execute so they just don't document it.

A customer of mine needs to see hit counts on MX rules so that he can eliminate his any-any permit rule after verifying that all legit traffic is covered. We can get a snapshot by looking at the L3 rules with the GUI but we'd like to have several days of data to ensure that we're going to break as few things as possible. getNetworkApplianceFirewallL3FirewallRules tells us what the rules are, but no hit counts. Any suggestions?

So my shop was running Novell 3.x servers on 10baseT Ethernet. One fine day (just before lunch of course) not just one server stopped being responsive - everything stopped responding. Issue with the core? Nope, no core installed for several years yet. Cabling issue? No, multiple servers were not responding. Whipped out the Network General DOS Sniffer and found out that one of the servers was sending ALL responses with a MAC address of ffff.ffff.ffff. Wouldn't it have been nice to have a Meraki switch with broadcast rate limiting? Most assuredly.
