Figure: A typical configuration of direct-attached links that use LLT over UDP depicts a typical configuration of direct-attached links employing LLT over UDP.
The configuration that the /etc/llttab file for Node 0 represents has directly attached crossover links. It might also have the links that are connected through a hub or switch. These links do not cross routers.
LLT sends broadcast requests to peer nodes to discover their addresses. So the addresses of peer nodes do not need to be specified in the /etc/llttab file using the set-addr command. For direct attached links, you do need to set the broadcast address of the links in the /etc/llttab file. Verify that the IP addresses and broadcast addresses are set correctly by using the ifconfig -a command.

The file for Node 1 resembles:
