to

This option specifies a broadcast address to be used. By default, browsing information is broadcast to all active interfaces.

Note

HP-UX® 10.20 and earlier do not properly handle broadcast unless you have a Class A, B, C or D netmask (i.e., there is no CIDR support).

Broadcast port

The port used for UDP broadcasts. By default this is the IPP port; if you change this, you need to do it on all servers. Only one BrowsePort is recognized.

Poll addresses

Poll the named server(s) for printers.
