Try this one -- it works in 'my' subnet:
<filter name='isolatedprivatevlan-vdsm' chain='ipv4'>
<filterref filter='clean-traffic'/>
<rule action='drop' direction='out' priority='10'>
<mac match='no' dstmacaddr='$GATEWAY_MAC'/>
</rule>
</filter>
Thanks,
Now it is blocking the traffic but I can't get traffic to the gateway as
well...

Try the above filter that puts the check into a different 'chain'
into different order. I'll be introducing a 'mac' chain where this
can then be put into rather than into the 'ipv4' chain.
The challenging part about the filtering rules is their order and
the XML can unfortunately not abstract this 'away'.
