Ellie, I think you just need it wherever having to forward a directed
broadcast. In this case the directed broadcast is in the last interface of
the last hop router I suppose ?!?

Asunto: Re: ip multicast helper-map - ip directed broadcast
I agree that "ip directed-broadcast" should be enabled on the outgoing
interface of the last hop. but how about the incoming interface of both
the first and the last hop? I see it configured on the example in the doc
CD but is it necessary?
The command guide says it's to "enable the translation of a directed
broadcast to physical broadcasts", and I think the only place that needs
it is the outgoing interface of the last hop. am I missing something
here?
thanks!
Ellie
