How do you get your IP address! DHCP (255.255.255.255/broadcast)
You can think of DOCSIS operations being the same as 802.1d.
DOCSIS provides like transparent Ethernet service over the cable plant.
Thanks,

Subject: cable question - OT but should be simple
Hello group,
In doing some simple setup of a LNKSYS hub on a cable-modem
account, the question occurred to me - Is this cable network considered
broadcast or non-broadcast? Any takers ? responses most welcome.
From my modest background I speculate non but then I have no hands-on with
CMTSs. Thanks
Jerry
just wondering on COMCAST.NET
