Understanding EIGRP Composite Metric

In this video you will learn all about the EIGRP composite metric. We will talk about what the composite metric is, how exactly it is calculated, and look at a real world example.

Out of all examples on the internet, this is by far the best I've come across. Thank you very much. Now time to go teach my colleagues.

best vid for calculating metric never thought about the lowest FD goin out will be the best route. thank you sir salute

this video helps me a lot understanding about EIGRP composite metric..thanks a lot..I will copy the formula in my wall

Thanks, Astorino Network for such an amazing video.

[@tikakhatri3306]

Thanks mate

[@Mallunetworking]

Good 👍

Hey guys, correction here - K values are actually stored as 8 bit value, so we can have 256 values (0-255], not 128.

[@MeditzNet]

Best video on EIGRP metric calculation, really helped me grasp this. Thanks

[@pikachoooooooooooooo]

Excellent

[@davidr.flores2043]

Excellent explanation, plain and easy. Thank you very much friend! I appreciate your work.

[@gustavocampos1551]

Thanks this video really help me to understand, you are great...

[@ryanjackson0x]

This really helped. Thanks.

[@freqlink]

very helpful way to break down what has been a cloud in my brain. Thanks

[@tennesseejed69]

Dude keep them coming.

[@neorology]

thanks

looks complex but simple..

Why the reported distance received for that router must be less than the feasible distance calculated locally to guarantees a loop-free path??

[@jastorino]

Hey David - Basically, when the AD/RD reported is < the FD, the router receiving the route is able to say “OK, the router advertising this prefix is closer to the destination than I have ever been”, and that is good enough. There could be paths that are actually both loop free and do not meet the FC, but the algorithm is a bit conservative.

Thanks! Great Video! I'am looking for this!

What are K values for?
When are they used?

[@pythonguru3329]

I thought K values can range from 0 to 255...

[@jightning]

First, thank you for the video. It helped allot. I think so too. There are 256 values in an 8 bit number. If "0" is one of them then you only have 255 left. you would need 9 bits to represent 0 - 256.

[@uttambaroi]

K values are just integer but anything else.....
