One correction to set the record straight, current Cisco configurations have the 'no ip directed-broadcast' on by default. Therefore, what I was seeing, based upon Lee's reference, was an acceptable response: the router responded with a echo reply as it saw a packet destined to one of its network addresses, and due to the default setting of 'no ip directed-broadcast', it did not forward the packet. -- Scanned for viruses and dangerous content at http://www.oneunified.net and is believed to be clean. _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list cisco-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
