What your describing is fairly common and you can fix this by adjusting
the delay metric of router interfaces in your path. In your example, you
could adjust the delay between the routers so that the path metrics are
equal. This is, as you note, the preferred approach with IGRP/EIGRP to
Thanks Tshon and Kent,
My point is that, using EIGRP routing protocol, for the same two routes, (in
the given case R1-R2-R4, and R1-R3-R4), they are seen as equal paths for
traffic from R1 to R4, but are not seen as equal for the traffic from R1 to
R5. This is a litle bit unusual to me.

I'm not sure I understand your entire question. But, I hope this
helps... you have to many formulas.
What the recommendation states is that if you are running other routing
protocols like ospf who
takes its decisions based on bandwidth statements then you shouldn't
change them, because it
