Can anyone please explain why EIGRP choose a route with highest metric. As you can see from the below output, route from 10.18.1.2 has better metric. But it was not choosen
Switch# sh ip route 10.1.0.0
IP Route Table for VRF "default"
'*' denotes best ucast next-hop
'**' denotes best mcast next-hop
'[x/y]' denotes [preference/metric]
'%<string>' in via output denotes VRF <string>
10.1.0.0/16, ubest/mbest: 1/0
*via 10.18.1.1, Eth1/34, [90/2000003840], 08:33:10, eigrp-1, internal
SWITCH# sh ip eigrp topology 10.1.0.0/16

Hello - Is there an explanation as to why the "sh ip route 10.1.0.0" says to use E1/34 and in the topology the choices are E1/14 & 19?

My bad. It was a typo. Route table also points to 1/14.

show ip eigrp topology active <<- can you share this
show ip eigrp topology detail-links <<- also this

I am not seeing any active routes or nonfeasible-successor.

can you confirm if you config max hop under eigrp or not ?
