200-301 · Question #1103
Refer to the exhibit. With which metric does router R1 learn the route to host 172.16.0.202?
The correct answer is C. 32445. Router R1 learns the route to host 172.16.0.202 with an EIGRP composite metric that is calculated based on the path's minimum bandwidth and cumulative delay.

Why each option
Router R1 learns the route to host 172.16.0.202 with an EIGRP composite metric that is calculated based on the path's minimum bandwidth and cumulative delay.
90 is the default administrative distance for EIGRP, which is used for path selection among different routing protocols, not as an EIGRP routing metric.
110 is the default administrative distance for OSPF, which is used for path selection among different routing protocols, not as an EIGRP routing metric.
The value 32445 represents a calculated EIGRP composite metric, which is derived from the minimum bandwidth and the sum of delays along the path from R1 to 172.16.0.202, scaled by 256 according to the default EIGRP metric formula.
3184439 is a numerical value typical of an EIGRP metric, but it is not the correct calculated metric for the specific path detailed in the exhibit.
