I forgot to mention that you need to apply the filter to the interface.
set ether0 ofilter e.out
save all
I also should mention that a filter like this is especially important on
your wan connections. It is so easy to congest a 56K or even a T-1 with
routing loops. Think of it this way, if you can congest a 10mbps ethernet
with routing loops, it is 3 times easier for a T-1 and about 90 times
easier on a 56K.
