Configuring a Broadcast Address
To configure a broadcast address, use the following command.
• Configure a broadcast address on an interface.
ip udp-broadcast-address
Examples of Configuring and Viewing a Broadcast Address
Dell(conf-if-vl-100)#ip udp-broadcast-address 1.1.255.255
Dell(conf-if-vl-100)#show config
!
interface Vlan 100
ip address 1.1.0.1/24
ip udp-broadcast-address 1.1.255.255
untagged TenGigabitEthernet 1/2/1
no shutdown
To view the configured broadcast address for an interface, use show interfaces command.
Dell#show interfaces vlan 100
Vlan 100 is up, line protocol is down

Configurations Using UDP Helper
When you enable UDP helper and the destination IP address of an incoming packet is a broadcast
address, Dell Networking OS 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
• UDP Helper with Subnet Broadcast Addresses
• UDP Helper with Configured Broadcast Addresses
• UDP Helper with No Configured Broadcast Addresses
UDP Helper with Broadcast-All Addresses
When the destination IP address of an incoming packet is the IP broadcast address, Dell Networking OS
rewrites the address to match the configured broadcast address.
