    In this case the 0.0.0.0 means a broadcast (DHCP or bootp).
    But in other situations the 0.0.0.0 can be localhost or the
    default gateway(cisco).

    $route -n
    0.0.0.0 192.168.1.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0

    $route
    default 192.168.1.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0

    $telnet 0.0.0.0 80
    Trying 0.0.0.0...
    Connected to 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0).
    ...

    []`s
