If this is layer2 filtering, where are the layer2 tags in the ipfw rule?
And if this is the extent of your layer 2, then don't forget an allow/deny
default for layer2 packets (allow ip from any to any layer2). Also, you're
only checking your layer2 on a specific interface, perhaps you only have
one.

I've got something like:
00010 skipto 32000 ip from any to any not layer2
00050 deny ip from any to any MAC any 00:30:da:00:00:00/24 layer2 in
00055 count ip from any to any MAC any 00:0b:db:1d:63:56 layer2 in // sniffing for traffic
03100 allow ip from any to any layer2
// bandwidth monitoring pipes
32003 pipe 3 ip from any to any src-ip 10.10.66.0/24 in recv em1
32004 pipe 4 ip from any to any dst-ip 10.10.66.0/24 out xmit em1
65534 allow ip from any to any
65535 deny ip from any to any
