Dell S3048-ON, Configuration Manual

Page: 372 / 1036

Important Points to Remember
• The existing
ip directed broadcast
command is rendered meaningless if you enable UDP helper on the same interface.
• The broadcast traffic rate should not exceed 200 packets per second when you enable UDP helper.
• You may specify a maximum of 16 UDP ports.
• UDP helper is compatible with IP helper (
ip helper-address
):
• UDP broadcast traffic with port number 67 or 68 are unicast to the dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP) server per the
ip
helper-address
configuration whether or not the UDP port list contains those ports.
• If the UDP port list contains ports 67 or 68, UDP broadcast traffic is forwarded on those ports.
Enabling UDP Helper
To enable UDP helper, use the following command.
• Enable UPD helper.
ip udp-helper udp-ports
Example of Enabling UDP Helper and Using the UDP Helper
show
Command
Dell(conf-if-gi-1/1)#ip udp-helper udp-port 1000
Dell(conf-if-gi-1/1)#show config
!
interface GigabitEthernet 1/1
ip address 2.1.1.1/24
ip udp-helper udp-port 1000
no shutdown
To view the interfaces and ports on which you enabled UDP helper, use the
show ip udp-helper
command from EXEC Privilege
mode.
Dell#show ip udp-helper

Configuring a Broadcast Address
To configure a broadcast address, use the following command.
• Configure a broadcast address on an interface.
ip udp-broadcast-address
Examples of Configuring and Viewing a Broadcast Address
Dell(conf-if-vl-100)#ip udp-broadcast-address 1.1.255.255
Dell(conf-if-vl-100)#show config
!
interface Vlan 100
ip address 1.1.0.1/24
ip udp-broadcast-address 1.1.255.255
untagged GigabitEthernet 1/2
no shutdown
To view the configured broadcast address for an interface, use
show interfaces
command.
Dell#show interfaces vlan 100
Vlan 100 is up, line protocol is down
Address is 00:01:e8:0d:b9:7a, Current address is 00:01:e8:0d:b9:7a
Interface index is 1107787876
