UNICAST ROUTING

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
By default, EIGRP uses the ____ bandwidth on the path to a destination network and the total ____ to compute routing metrics.
A
Minimum, delay
B
Maximum, load
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Minimum bandwidth is 1000000 Kbit This bandwidth is a local router interface value.

Detailed explanation-2: -When an EIGRP router has to send multicast traffic to other routers then it will simply copy the update from one PVC to all other PVCs. If you have many (low bandwidth) PVCs then it’s possible that EIGRP traffic will completely saturate your interfaces. By default EIGRP will use up to 50% of the interface bandwidth.

Detailed explanation-3: -The delay value used in the EIGRP metric calculation is the delay in 10’s of microseconds.
