Hello ppl, I seem to have a problem grasping what happens when we use an all ones subnet. I remember a while ago someone posted a link to CCO concerning this. The link is as below
http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/105/40.html My questions are: 1. In case 1, when host 195.1.1.24 sends a local broadcast to 195.1.1.255, do all hosts attached to the async lines on Router 2 receive that packet? I believe they do. 2. Why does router 2 forward the packet out to router 1 via the default route? 3. After router 1 receives the packet, it bounces between router 1 and 5. Why? Does this have to do with router 5 forwarding the broadcast packet out using the default route again? Do the hosts attached to router 5's async lines receive the packet as well? I ask this because the writer did not specify whether the hosts received the broadcast packet or not. This stuff may be elementary but I really need to know. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you.
