A-31
Parameter: Broadcast Address
Path: Configuration Manager > Protocols > IP > Interfaces
Default: You specified the broadcast address when you added IP to the circuit.
Options: 0.0.0.0 or any IP address
Function: Specifies the broadcast address that the IP router uses to broadcast packets.
Accepting 0.0.0.0 for the broadcast address specifies that the IP router will use a
broadcast address with a host portion of all 1s. Accepting 0.0.0.0 does not
configure the router to use the address 0.0.0.0 to broadcast packets. For
example, if you have set the IP address to 123.1.1.1 and the subnet mask to
255.255.255.0, accepting the default value 0.0.0.0 configures the IP router to use
the address 123.1.1.255 to broadcast packets. For the explicit broadcast address
of all 1s, enter 255.255.255.255 for this parameter.
Instructions: Accept the default, 0.0.0.0, unless the calculated broadcast address (host
portion) of all 1s is not adequate. If this is the case, then enter the appropriate IP
broadcast address in dotted-decimal notation.
MIB Object ID: 1.3.6.1.4.1.18.3.5.3.2.1.24.1.9
Parameter: Cost
Path: Configuration Manager > Protocols > IP > Interfaces
Default: 1
Options: 1 to the value of the RIP diameter (maximum 127)
Function: Sets the cost of this interface. The interface cost is added to routes learned on
this interface through RIP and is specified in subsequent RIP packets
transmitted out other interfaces.
Instructions: Enter the interface cost value (standard RIP implementation assigns a cost of 1);
however, keep in mind that increasing this value causes the upper bound set by
the RIP Network Diameter parameter to be attained more rapidly.
