hello,ip directed-broadcast is different from local broadcast, eg: R1---R2 | | | | 172.16.1.0/24 192.16.1.0/24 as R1 concerned,a user send a broacast packet detined to 172.16.1.255,this is local broadcast;while send 192.16.1.255,the R1 and R2 enabled "ip directed broad" can transmit the broadcast packets destined to 192.16.1.255(isn't local),these is the difference between local broadc and directed broadc
"ip mroute-cache",like mac table (or mac cache),set up a efficient way for the ip routing of multicast,when first packet transmit,the inbound port bind the source ip,outbound bind the destination ip,sequence packet can save the resource for the routing-table lookup .
