Subject: Make IPv4 multicast space 224.0.0.0/4 broadcast by default.
X-Git-Tag: release-1.1pre11~86
X-Git-Url: https://tinc-vpn.org/git/browse?p=tinc;a=commitdiff_plain;h=116f2ed27a74982e4d1a19b7a8fd08b0aaee1f8d

Make IPv4 multicast space 224.0.0.0/4 broadcast by default.

We already do this for IPv6 multicast space (ff00::/8), so why not
extend it to IPv4.
