I can confirm the latest firmware has fixed the leaking broadcast packet storm.
I have two GS716Tv3 and a GS710TP all attached in LAG loops for redundancy.
GS716Tv3 code = v6.3.1.19
GS710TP code = v5.4.2.30
I have 4 Vlans spanning the Lags.
I have updated all the Ubiquity AP's to the latest code.
Removed all MAC acls.
All is working as expected, APs broadcast this packet when a client roams.
Only one packet now per roaming event.
Excellent work Netgear. Thank you for the fix and for helping the community.
