firewall – very unusual broadcast in LAN with Cisco ASA


At this time i’ve detected Cisco ASA 5505 CPU utilization went to 100% and LAN was flood with broadcast (ff:ff:ff:ff:ff) going to 10.0.12.255 handle, i’ve observed all these exercise in wireshark that some unusual stuff occurring.

I soar on firewall (Cisco ASA) and did present conn the place i discovered following

ASA(config)# present conn
1946 in use, 50002 most used


UDP eng  10.0.12.255:44678 inside  10.0.10.92:59654, idle 0:00:00, bytes 21657163800, flags -

It was clear 10.0.10.92 doing one thing dangerous so we’ve got discover supply and shutdown that PC (home windows desktop) however attention-grabbing sufficient broadcast did not cease it was nonetheless occurring.

Lastly after 30 minute of dancing i made a decision to clear conn desk and as quickly as i did following every thing began trying good.

ASA(config)# clear conn handle 10.0.10.92
28 connection(s) deleted.

can somebody clarify me what was occurring right here?
