Hi,
I have a quiestion about design of EIGPR.
Here is the topology.
******************************************************************************
[Router_A]

bandwidth 64
ip address 172.19.0.2 255.255.0.0

!
router eigrp 1
network 172.18.0.0
network 172.19.0.0

!
******************************************************************************
And, here is the behavior.
******************************************************************************
Router_A#show ip route
Gateway of last resort is not set
D 172.17.0.0/16 [90/41024000] via 172.16.0.2, 1d17h, Serial0/1
C 172.16.0.0/16 is directly connected, Serial0/1
C 172.19.0.0/16 is directly connected, Serial0/0
D 172.18.0.0/16 [90/41024000] via 172.19.0.1, 1d17h, Serial0/0
Router_D#show ip route
Gateway of last resort is not set
D 172.17.0.0/16 [90/2681856] via 172.18.0.1, 1d17h, Serial0/0
D 172.16.0.0/16 [90/3193856] via 172.18.0.1, 1d17h, Serial0/0
C 172.19.0.0/16 is directly connected, Serial0/1
C 172.18.0.0/16 is directly connected, Serial0/0
******************************************************************************
I tried following command to Router_A's S0/1 from Router_D.
Then Router_D selected farther route.
******************************************************************************
Router_D#traceroute 172.16.0.1
Type escape sequence to abort.
Tracing the route to 172.16.0.1
1 172.18.0.1 12 msec 12 msec 12 msec
2 172.17.0.1 28 msec 28 msec 28 msec
3 172.16.0.1 24 msec 24 msec *
******************************************************************************
How can I configure so that Router_D can select shortest route.

Okumura

make all your interface consistent in bandwidth value. the metric should prefer the shortest path. i do not remember the bandwidth value if you leave serial interface to default.
i see that only router D has no auto-summary. Not sure if it does anything in this case.

Hi
As you know metric in EIGRB depend on BW, Delay...
First us command no auto-summary for all Routers (has noting to do for calulate pest path)
,,,,,
Second use commanded show ip eigrp topology you will see only feasible successors
and use show ip eigrp topology all-links or show ip eigrp topology summary
for show all update and why EIGRP choose the path
,,,,,,
if you don’t understand output you can copy it here to discuss it

Hi, chinkevi and Khaled Al Homaidhi.
Thank you so much for your nice advise.
I improved my configuration as you said about bandwidth and this question has resolved.
Here is the result.
