Configurations Using UDP Helper
When UDP helper is enabled and the destination IP address of an incoming packet is a broadcast address,
FTOS suppresses the destination address of the packet. The following sections describe various
configurations that employ UDP helper to direct broadcasts.
• UDP Helper with Broadcast-all Addresses on page 479
• UDP Helper with Subnet Broadcast Addresses on page 479
• UDP Helper with Configured Broadcast Addresses on page 480
• UDP Helper with No Configured Broadcast Addresses on page 481
