You will only require it on the interfaces that will forward to the subnet
directed (all ones HOST) address.
Your local traffic destined for a directed broadcast is routed as any other
packet to the ip address listed in the "ip helper-address" command (as a
unicast).
I take it you want dhcp or other broadcast destined traffic on one interface
to be broadcasted out on another interface?
If E0/1 is where that broadcast will END then it will need the "ip
directed-broadcast" command.
If E0/1 is just another interface on the way to 187.1.56.255 then it will
not. Only the last router interface where 187.1.56.x is configured.

Subject: ip directed-broadcast
Hello,
I went through the DOC CD and couldn't really understand where shoud I
apply
the "ip direct-broadcast". I know for sure it is on the destination
interface
of the broadcast. The question is do I have to apply it under the interface
forwarding this traffic?
For example:
interface Ethernet0/0
ip helper-address 187.1.56.255
ip directed-broadcast
!
interface Ethernet0/1
ip directed-broadcast
Do I really have to put it under e0/0? Why?
Is it that it has to be applied to the originating and destination
interface?
Thanks in advance,
