Example (Limited Broadcast forwarding disabled)
Figure 36 - Example of Limited broadcast forwarding disabled
In this example (Figure 36), limited broadcast forwarding is enabled on the
Base
unit, disabled on the
Mobile (1)
unit and enabled on the
Mobile (2)
unit. If
Sender
sends a packet to destination address
255.255.255.255, the packet would reach
Mobile Host (4)
only.
The
Mobile (1)
unit would discard
any limited broadcast packet it received from the
Base
unit.
If the user wants the
Base
unit to do the discarding of the limited broadcasting packets, then the lim-
ited broadcast forwarding must be disabled on the
Base
unit itself. Then no
Mobile Host
unit would
ever be receiving a limited broadcast packet.
