you should start implementing ingress filtering on your routers
so that this spoofed attack will not happen again by your end users.

if you have a cisco based router:
conf t
int e0/0 <-- do this on all of your interfaces
ip verify unicast reverse-path

if you have an ISis or other linux based router/firewall:
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/_ALL_INTERFACES_/rp_filter
