Hello everyone,

I have a question that I have been struggling with for quite some time.  Are
the reliability and load metrics in EIGRP (or IGRP for that matter)
dynamically learned?  If so, why do we manually assign values like we do for
bandwidth and delay.  I have searched numerous Cisco white papers and have
found only one article where it mentions the two as being dynamically
learned.  Since I have not found any others that mention it, I am starting
to feel that the one article is a typo (or I am just not understanding it
the way it is worded).  I would think that if they were dynamically learned,
then there would be more information about the process.  No other routing
protocol is able to detect such statistics on the fly (to my knowledge).  I
understand that dynamic detection might not be a good thing, esp. if the
reliability and load were constantly changing, but never-the-less there
should be more info somewhere.

If you can find more than one specific white paper and lead me to them, I
would appreciate it.

Thank you,
