I understood that EIGRP had a hop count of 224 and IGRP was 255? or has this changed? TIA

IGRP doesn't use hop count as a metric, nor does EIGRP.

thanks for that-I know RIP uses Hop count-it was a question on a quiz I was doing-
Neither EIGRP or IGRP use hop count in their metric calculations, but they do have a maximum number of hops from one side of the network to the other.
These are the figures that you have of 224 for EIGRP and 255 for IGRP.

I am correct int hinking IGRP uses Bandwdth and delay?
Hi,
By default yes, but could use also MTU, Link load and Link reliability.
