NOTE:
If an IP server or subnet entry is invalid, a switch will not try to forward UDP packets to the
configured device or subnet address.
Subnet masking for UDP forwarding addresses
The subnet mask for a UDP forwarding address is the same as the mask applied to the subnet on which the
inbound UDP broadcast packet is received. To forward inbound UDP broadcast packets as limited broadcasts to
other subnets, use the broadcast address that covers the subnet you want to reach. For example, if VLAN 1 has
an IP address of 15.75.10.1/24 (15.75.10.1 255.255.255.0), you can configure the following unicast and limited
broadcast addresses for UDP packet forwarding to subnet 15.75.11.0:
Forwarding destination type
IP address
UDP unicast to a single device in the 15.75.11.0 subnet
15.75.11.X
UDP broadcast to subnet 15.75.11.0
15.75.11.255
