Hi all

This maybe has been answered many times and everywhere but i can't find 
a short and final answer to that basic question :
In an ad hoc network, with a routing protocol installed on every node, 
all the nodes having a valid address in the same common subnetwork, 
192.168.1.0/24 for example, would a basic broadcast message will be 
(re)transmitted to every member of the subnet as in a wired network 
segment ? a crude command sample could be ping -b 192.168.1.0 or more 
useful ones like iperf or netperf

I would accept long answers too... ;-)

Regards

Laurent
