RE: EIGRP Dual Paths

The paths are not equal..ethernet is 10M and TR is 16(guessing).
If the nics were the same, then the composite metric would equal,
And you would have two equal paths to load balance thru..

Subject: EIGRP Dual Paths

I have an EIGRP domain.

r6 ---serial-------- r9
 | |
ethernet ethernet
 | |
r7 ---token ring ---r8

I can ping all around. The route table showes r7 to r9 through token
ring. If I shut the token ring I can ping r9 the other way.

However the route table doesn't show two paths from r7 to r9. I don't
understand why not.
