When a router receives a broadcast, it typically does not forward it to other networks, as routers are designed to separate broadcast domains. Instead, the router will usually drop the broadcast packet and may send an internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) message back to the sender if appropriate. This behavior helps to reduce unnecessary traffic and maintain network efficiency. In contrast, switches and hubs will forward broadcast packets to all devices within the same local network segment.
What else can I help you with?
What action will a router take when it receives a frame with a broadcast MAC address?
It will not forward the frame to another network
What device separates broadcast domains?
SwitchDescription: Network Switch a device that seperates the Broadcast domain of a LAN segment from other segments.
How can a router split up broadcast domains?
Since a router does not forward broadcast messages it automatically splits up the broadcast domains for all clients connected to them.
What separates broadcast domains?
router
What is the broadcast range of a wireless g router?
It depends on the router. Usually it will say the range on the box the router came in.
What are broadcast domains created with?
A broadcast domain is created any time you connect several clients together via a network connectivity device, such as a hub or switch or bridge. They would all be in the same broadcast domain for every client connected to them. Since a router does not forward broadcast messages, it creates different broadcast domains.
In a large network composed of one giant segment broadcast traffic could seriously affect performance How do routers solve this problem?
By default, the broadcasts will not pass to the other side of a router. Thus, the router divides the giant broadcast domain into several smaller ones.By default, the broadcasts will not pass to the other side of a router.

How many collision and broadcast domain are there if a router is directly connected to hub?
A hub contains a single collision domain and a single broadcast domain, regardless of the number of ports on the hub.
What is broadcast receiver?
A broadcast receiver is a radio that receives broadcasts from commercial radio stations.
When a router receives a packet with destination address that is within an unknown subnetwork of a directly attached network what is the default behavior if the ip classless command is not enabled?
broadcast the packet through all interfaces except the one on which it was received
Which device eliminates broadcast storms?
a router and a layer 3 switches.
Which device could be installed to reduce the size of the broadcast domain?
router
