Hi Imran, David,
 
Imran offset-list 0 specifies all routes, you don't need a access-list 0. This command works with RIP. As David said, I should try offset-list other than 0(say offset-list 1, by defining access-list 1 for sepecific learned routes, may be eigrp doesn't like offset-list 0) to see if the command realy changes the metric. According to my understanding offset-list command in eigrp doesn't add/remove composite metric value, it just replaces the CM (composite metric) defined by the offset-list command.
PS:other way to infulence metric by lower bandwidth of link or sum of delays.
 
 
thanks

What was the eigrp metric of a router before and after the application

Your command will not "change the metric of all learned
routes(offset-list 0) to 5555", but it should ADD 5555 to the calculated
composite metric.

Mani,

One way I know of changing the metric in EIGRP is via the delay command
in interface configuration mode. To see the default delay, use the show
interfaces command.

Hi Group,

I tried to change eigrp metric from a neighbor using following two
commands, but I couldn't achieve the desired result, I would like to
know the mistake I am making. Any feed back is appreciated(I know I
could adjust bandwidth and delay to modify metrics of eigrp)

R1 s0 -----------------eigrp 100--------------- s0 R2

R2
int s 0
offset-list 0 in 5555 interface serial 0
PS: I thought R2 should change the metric of all learned
routes(offset-list 0) to 5555. I even applied following command on R1,
offset-list 0 out 5555 serial 0. I know that I could have chaged delay
at R1, S0 or link bandwidth, but I wanted to see the result by using
offset list command. In RIP this command modifies the metric, hop
count. In EIGRP this command must change the composite metric.

thanks in advance
