or disables the transmission of packets destined to the subnet broadcast address of the egress IP
interface.
When enabled, a frame destined to the local subnet on this IP interface is sent as a subnet broadcast
out this interface. NOTE: Allowing directed broadcasts is a well-known mechanism used for denial-
of-service attacks.
By default, directed broadcasts are not allowed and are discarded at this egress IP interface.
The no form of the command disables directed broadcasts forwarding out of the IP interface.
no allow-directed-broadcasts — Directed broadcasts are dropped.

ARP is seen from an IP host. Otherwise, the ARP entry is aged from the ARP table. If the arp-

This command specifies the bi-directional forwarding detection (BFD) parameters for the associated

IP interface. If no parameters are defined the default values are used.
The multiplier specifies the number of consecutive BFD messages that must be missed from the peer
before the BFD session state is changed to down and the upper level protocols (OSPF, IS-IS, BGP or
PIM) is notified of the fault.
The no form of the command removes BFD from the router interface regardless of the IGP/RSVP.
