205.236.182.0
That is mine. Every router on there has had directed broadcasts disabled for a long time. Only that network is a /25, so the broadcast address we are talking about is 205.236.182.127. It turns out that not only does 205.236.182.255 unexpectedly function as an alternate broadcast address for this network, but it is unaffected by no ip directed-broadcast!!! This sounds like two bugs in one. (and I performed a hack to fix this network, but I shouldn't have had to do this) -Phil
