How do Cisco SNMP agents respond to a broadcast request?

[RanilG]

Hi,

Can Cisco switches/routers be discovered by any SNMP NMS on their broadcast IP addresses?

Came across an external link saying that they drop SNMP requests on subnet broadcast addresses.

Q:2.60.12

What is the typical behavior?

Thanks.
