I was working on Vol 3 Lab 3 Question 3.2.  I configured my lab slightly
different then the way it is in the Proctor guide.  Now I am starting to
think of a reason my solution may come back and bite me later.  Here is what
I did:
 
I used an offset list in that was applied to the Ethernet port so that it is
slightly higher in it's metric  
I configured a variance of 2 to it would balance between the two (and it
does)
Configured traffic share so traffic will only use only the serial
connection, yet still show both in the routing table (as per the question)
 
That appears to work with just the single route.
 
Now the Proctor guide did it  by changing the bandwidth and delay of the
Ethernet connection instead of the off set list
 
My question is this:  is there a configuration out there that would make min
fail since I have a set offset value?  Currently I believe that the metric
between the two routers are always the same and it really does not matter
what is behind each.  If I send a route through EIGRP and it uses that link
then it will add the same values  to the metric and it will still work.
 
 
Guess I am just second guessing my self but would like someone else's
thought on the topic
