Hello,
While choosing a possible guard, a client multiplies Wgg with the bandwidth
weight of a possible relay having guard flag.
But if a client wants to choose a relay, for guard position, having both
Guard and Exit flag (EE), then will it multiply bandwidth weight with Wgg
or Wgd?
Thanks,

Under which condition, the client will choose Guard flagged node and
Guard+Exit flagged node for guard position?

Tor will consider any node with the Guard flag during guard selection
(this also includes Guard+Exit nodes). As you noticed, it will apply
different weights
Hello,
The following is the default Tor network in shadow simulator:
Total BW of Guard flagged nodes=258.15 MB/S
Total BW of Middle nodes=23.69 MB/S
Total BW of Exit flagged nodes=13.23 MB/S
Total BW of Guard+Exit flagged nodes=213.4 MB/S
Now, I inserted 40 guard nodes and 40 exit nodes, each of
