Say I have two segments, each configured with a broadcast segment address. If I send a message to a group to which all members of all segments subscribe, how does the traffic get from one segment to another? The real question I'm looking to answer is do I need to support directed broadcast between the segments, or are broadcasts only originated within a given segment?</div><div><br></div><div>Alec</div><div><br><div>
