Configuring IP Services
2-38
Parameter: Broadcast Address
Default: You specified the broadcast address when you added IP to the circuit.
Options: 0.0.0.0 or any IP address
Function: Specifies the broadcast address that the IP router uses to broadcast
packets. Accepting 0.0.0.0 for the broadcast address specifies that the IP
router will use a broadcast address with a host portion of all 1s. Accepting
0.0.0.0 does not configure the router to use the address 0.0.0.0 to
broadcast packets. For example, if you have set the IP address to
123.1.1.1 and the subnet mask to 255.255.255.0, accepting the default
value 0.0.0.0 configures the IP router to use the address 123.1.1.255 to
broadcast packets. For the explicit broadcast address of all 1s, enter
255.255.255.255 for this parameter.
Instructions: Accept the default, 0.0.0.0, unless the calculated broadcast address (host
portion) of all 1s is not adequate. If this is the case, then enter the
appropriate IP broadcast address in dotted decimal notation.
MIB Object ID: 1.3.6.1.4.1.18.3.5.3.2.1.4.1.9
Parameter: Interface Cost
Default: 1
Range: 1 to the value of the RIP diameter (maximum 127)
Function: Sets the cost of this interface. The interface cost is added to routes learned
on this interface through RIP and is specified in subsequent RIP packets
transmitted out other interfaces.
Instructions: Enter the interface cost value (standard RIP implementation assigns a cost
of 1); however, keep in mind that increasing this value causes the upper
bound set by the RIP Network Diameter parameter to be attained more
rapidly.
