B. An IP-directed broadcast is a packet whose destination address is a multicast group to send the packet to a group of hosts in a local or remote network.
C. An IP-directed broadcast is an IP packet whose destination address is a valid unicast address, but which originates from a node that is itself part of that destination subnet.
D. All switches in the network forward an IP-directed broadcast in the same way they forward unicast IP packets.
