Is it possible to ping directed broadcast address from cisco router? It
looks like directed broadcast is translated to 255.255.255.255 and it does
not matter if "ip directed-broadcast" is enabled or not. Debug ip packet
shows the following:
R1#ping 10.1.12.255
*Mar 1 00:21:12.087: IP: s=10.1.12.1 (local), d=255.255.255.255
(FastEthernet0/0), len 100, sending broad/multicast.
