EIGRP - change multicast address

Lukas Hubschmid
Level 1
Level 1

Hello everybody

As I know, EIGRP uses multicast address 224.0.0.10, e.g. for sending HELLO messages.

Is there any way to change this multicast address to e.g. 224.0.0.20?

It is just a theoretical question, so I do not have any live example

Best regards,

Lukas

Hi Lukas,

This is predined hence you cannot change the multicast address of EIGRP.

EIGRP uses IP protocol 88, It uses a multicast address of 224.0.0.10 for hellos and routing updates.
