EIGRP load balancin methods
1. Variance command[unequal cost path load balancing]
2.Changing bandwidth/delay[equal cost path load balancing]
YES 3RD METHOD EXIST
3.shut down the interface look at the metrics and use offset-list command on the lower metric link, to increase the metric to equal to that of other link
"say link 1 metric is 3215
say link 2 metric is 2000 (ethernet 0)
-router)#offset-list 0 in 1215 ethernet 0 will do the tric(offset-list 0 defines all the routes)

EIGRP takes the minmum bw and total delay of the entire path to
calculate composite metric. By making sure minimum bw and total delay
are the same across multiple paths you can load balance traffic
without using variance command.
