I could try to give you an explanation, but I'm a mere mortal. Gen. Brian
Dennis himself gave a beautiful, memorable, and generally "one for the ages"
description in the solutions guide.
I believe this one wanted 4:1 ratio? Well you need to quickly do something
to get the metrics in about that ratio? I changed bandwidth and delay until
I got my solution.
Try setting bandwidth to "1" and "delay to 1" and then increasing every so
small along different points until the router you want to effect the changes
on (the one running the eigrp metric calculation) works once the conditions
are met, and it has the variance command.
Don't forget,
"Genius see the answer before the question"

Subject: EIGRP variance load sharing help
Can anyone offer any insight on how to quickly determine the EIGRP
metrics for a particular variance load sharing ratio. I struggled with
the IE lab 8 EIGRP variance question and ended up trying different
delays and bandwidth and ultimately calculating them to figure out the
question. However, this could eat up time if this was the real test.
Is there a quick rule or procedure for getting a particular metric and
load sharing ratio? In particular, Is there a way to avoid going over
the FD?
Thanks.
