>From what I recall the broadcast is an IP broadcast which will limit it
to the same IP segment ie the local network For a network of
192.168.0.x with a mask of 255.255.255.0 it will only be noticed by
hosts with .x addresses.

Broadcasts go to all 1's or all 0's so 192.168.0.255 or 192.168.0.0
using the example address range. 

I'm not familiar enough with SSH to say but I'd guess it would need to
also pass the broadcast address as well as bridge so that the
Squeezebox could be on the same IP address range as the host.


(I'm aware .0 isn't a broadcast address, historically though it was
used that way, I believe it is now more correctly known as a multicast
address.)
