abc,
Just as a thought you might want to make sure of the suggestions you
give on the list...especially when you're going to make comments like
that..

I don't believe EIGRP(DV) was ever considered a "link State" protocol.
However, I do believe it uses the same formula as IGRP to calculate it's
composite metric with the exception of the scaling it's metric by 256.
Well it would seem that you answered your own rhetorical question...!
Although. I'm sure no answer was needed.. or at least you thought that was
the case.
We're all learning here it would seem.. so can we step down off our "soap
boxes"..
Thanks
Nigel..
