EIGRP Maximum-Paths

[Craddockc]

Community,

If I have 2 or more equal cost paths to a network where EIGRP is load balancing across them by default, if i issue the "Maximum-Paths 1" command, how does EIGRP decide which path to keep in the routing table and which to get rid of? How can this be deterministic in nature?

Hello

My understanding would be the higher neighbouring loopback or interface address  as you are in theory disablng equal cost LB with maximum paths value of 1
