Your right I May be incorrect let me look it up and see if we can find the answer. He command reference says the ttl attribute sets the time to live on the message sent by the mapping agent. 224.0.0.4/24 is link local which is outside the range used by the mapping agent. What happens when you debug IP mpacket on the hub? Sent from my iPhone
