Danny,
Think about the rules for using the "variance" command.
The fact that you offset by 2000 on R7 works but not if you "double" should 
give you a good clue.
Regards,
Blanco

>Hello, Group.  I am trying to get the variance command to work with EIGRP and 
I think I'm doing it correctly, but it does not work the way I'd think it 
would.  Here's my topology:
>
>      |--R6------R9--|
>R4--|                    |---BB2
>      |-R7-------R8--|
>

>There is a loopback off of BB2 that is being learned by R4 from both R6 and 
R7.  Under a normal config, R4's traffic is load balanced between R6 and R7. To 
test variance, I added an offset list to R7 outbound on the F0 doubling the 
metric of what R4 sees from R6 and R7.  Without Variance configured on 4, I saw 
that R4 preferred to get to the loopback via R6 and this is fine. When I 
added "variance 2" under EIGRP on R4, I expected to see both routes in the 
routing table and R4's traffic load balancing this traffic.  This did not 
happen.  Instead, only the path through 6 remained.  Here's the really weird 
part.  When I lowered the offset on R7 to 2000 instead of double, it worked the 
way it's supposed to.  As I understand it this should work the way I first 
tried it, but it's not.  Am I missing something?
