John, Shiran
Thank you for responding.
I understand the use of "broadcast" in a hub and spoke scenario, and why you
need not send duplicate broadcasts from the spokes.
In scenarios with point-to-point (P2P) connections, where the requirement is
to use main interfaces, no inverse-ARP, I do not understand when to use the
"broadcast" keyword with the "frame-relay map ip" command, and when not to
do so.
The following situations come to mind:
1. If the IGP is OSPF in NBMA/P2MP-NMBA mode, do not use "broadcast"
keyword.
2. If the IGP is RIPv2/EIGRP, use "broadcast" keyword.
Are the above summations correct?
If you use the "broadcast" keyword in situation 1. above, would you be
penalised?
Thanks
Ben
