Hello
Thanks for your time to help.
I am learning EIGRP. May I have your help?
In Reliable Transport protocol (RTP), after device send packet to 224.0.0.10, it will wait a time call multicast flow timer. This default is 50, unit is second.
If not receive ACK, it will send unicast, the interval would be Retransmission Timeout (RTO). This default is 100, unit is ms. 100ms = 0.1s
I use below network to verify. I don't know why R1 Multicast Flow Timer become so large. Now I will shutdown R1 e0/1 and then shutdown R3 loopback0 immediately. I suppose this will trigger reliable multicast.
My question is
Q1. Time between first multicast and first unicast, the interval is 94.506468-94.406707=0.099761s. This not match Multicast flow Timer 50s.
Q2. R3 will remove R1 after 3 times of Hello, which 15s. Device send unicast query after neighbor already removed? this not make sense.
Thank you.
Best Regards.

Hello,
post the full running configurations of all three routers as well as the exact command sequence you are executing, so we can lab this up.

As a background, I had not understand SRTT.
Does information enough?
Thank you.
