Looking at the "ip multicast helper" example on the Doc CD reachable via:
I don't understand how the directed broadcast, created from the multicast stream at the incoming interface of the last hop router, is sent out on the outgoing interface as physical broadcast using default interface configuration.
Because this interface will just drop the directed broadcast arriving at the interface. In order to prevent this from happening the command "ip directed broadcast should" be configured on the outgoing interface of the last hop router.
Since this example doesn't say anything about that, I'm still wondering if this is correct, could somebody confirm this?
