Re: What is the differents between Switch and Router?

A router decrements the IP TTL field.
It should also not propagate broadcast IP packets (subnet or all 1's).
for a non-attached subnet, what is a broadcast packet?
Maybe he meant directed broadcast as in 10.10.255.255 ?

i guess i was too suble.  from here, i do not know that 10.10.255.255 is not
a host in subnet 10.0.0.0/10.
