What are the two default metrics used by EIGRP for route selection? (Choose two.)
A . Bandwidth
B . Delay
C . Reliability
D . Load
E . MTU
Answer: A, B
Explanation:
EIGRP adds together weighted values of different network link characteristics in order to calculate a metric for evaluating path selection.
These characteristics include:
• Delay (measured in 10s of microseconds)
• Bandwidth (measured in kilobytes per second)
• Reliability (in numbers ranging from 1 to 255; 255 being the most reliable)
• Load (in numbers ranging from 1 to 255; 255 being saturated)
Various constants (K 1 through K 5) are able to be set by a user to produce varying routing behaviors.
However by default, only delay and bandwidth are used in the weighted formula to produce a single 32bit metric:
Note: Default K values are: K1 = K3 = 1 and K2 = K4 = K5 = 0
When K5 is equal to 0 then [K5/( K4 + reliability)] is defined to be 1
Use of the default constants effectively reduces the formula above to:
