>From RFC3330:

240.0.0.0/4 - This block, formerly known as the Class E address
    space, is reserved.  The "limited broadcast" destination address
    255.255.255.255 should never be forwarded outside the (sub-)net of
    the source.  The remainder of this space is reserved for future use.
    [RFC1700, page 4]
