Ravi,

I'm pretty sure it has do with scenarios when the link bandwidth has been
artificially lowered to affect metrics. Therefore, you may need to increase
to 1400 for example if you had set bandwidth to 1 on a 28kbps circuit.

Hi Everyone,

A not-so-important question , just a little curiosity

R1(config)#int s1/0
R1(config-if)#ip bandwidth-percent eigrp 1 ?
  <1-999999> Maximum bandwidth percentage that EIGRP may use

Why is the maximum value 999999 when we are talking about percentages here
...
