This is the Compaq web based Management Insight Manager for servers... they
advertise via broadcast... your rulebase should be configured properly to
drop these types of packets.

Now... if you have your objects and rules set up properly, as you say you
do, your rules should already drop these types of packets.  But if you have
to, you could do something like this:

a. make a new tcp protocol:

        set name to: compaq_mgmt
        set dest port to: 2301

b. limited broadcast object:  new workstation
        set name to: limited_bcast
      set ip to: 255.255.255.255


Rule:

internal_net    limited_bcast   compaq_mgmt             DROP
LOG/don't log? (up to you)


Also, I would turn of the Compaq web based management if you aren't using
it.
