RE: Generating UDP broadcast from router using RTR possible?

The problem you're seeing is most likely related to directed-broadcast
being disabled on the interface. Issue the "ip directed-broadcast"
interface level command on E0/0 and see if that has an effect. Also you
can change the destination to 255.255.255.255 in the RTR if you want an
all subnet broadcast. If you have IEWB-RS this is covered in the volume
1 solutions guide under how to verify that the ip multicast-helper map
is working.
