EIGRP will spread traffic over equal cost routes automatically. The "load"
will be "balanced" with respect to the metrics, which are equal in this case.
'Variance' tells EIGRP to include unequal cost routes into the route selection
process. But without 'traffic-share balanced,' theoretically, you can tweak
'variance' to the point where EIGRP will include a route with, say, twice the
metric, yet still spread traffic over them equally (one destination here, one
there or one packet here and one there, etc. [bad idea in this case],
depending on the switching method used) without regard to the respective
metric weights. 'Traffic-share balanced' tells EIGRP to spread the traffic
across the unequal cost paths in proportion to the respective metric weights.

I believe 'traffic-share balanced' works with the 'variance' command to
load
balance in proportion to the metric weights. 'Variance' alone gets more
routes into the routing table for regular per-destination or per-packet
loading depending on the switching mode, while 'traffic-share balanced'
allows the proportional loading.

Sorry for the wrong subject in the former one.

Hi group...
does anybody know why there is a command like
"traffic-share balanced"
in eigrp for ios 12.2
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/sw/iosswrel/ps1835/products_command_ref
erence_chapter09186a00800917e8.html
what i understand is it is already the default setting,
and there is no command like "traffic-share min" for ios 12.2.
thank you in advance
