DS125DF1610: Question about 7.3.4 in datasheet regarding broadcasting/replication

Part Number: DS125DF1610

Hello, below are a couple of questions I have regarding section 7.3.4 in the datasheet regarding cross point switch of a single channel input to >1 channel output.

1. What is the difference between broadcasting and replication? 

2. I have a use case where I am performing cross point switch such that channel 6A->7A and 6A->7B. In the datasheet, it states that "In a broadcast configuration, the straight through path connecting the broadcasting input to its own output needs to be enabled and set to have master control". Does this mean I need to add 6A->6A to support the previous function? 

Thank you.
