You can look up the k values and the algorithim on the doccd. The important
part is to make the second route a feasible sucsessor. Once you've done
that you can refer to the algorithim to change the k values accordingly.
lots of fun to calculate. Conversly you can make the second route a
feasible sucsessor and then play with the delay and bandwidth on the FS's
hops by trial and error. Changing the default metrics won't help(I think)
