this command, prevent broadcast from being dropped.
So after activating this, u can configure helper-address to convert
broadcast to unicast or to propagate broadcast to some other subnets. The
command "ip directed-broadcast" enable the translation of directed
broadcast.
This is used if u have a DHCP or BOOTP server and clients on different
subnets.
Helper Address are used to permit client to join servers.

In IOS 12.0, the default is disabled

Hope it helps.
