Description Use this command to display the broadcast routing information for
all ports in the switch. The broadcast routing information indicates all
ports that are members of the broadcast distribution tree that is, ports
that are able to send and receive broadcast frames.

distribution tree. The broadcast path selection protocol selects the
E_Ports that are part of the broadcast distribution tree. The E_Ports
are chosen in such a way to prevent broadcast routing loops.
The following fields are displayed:
