EIGRP (Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol) uses two primary parameters to calculate the best path by default: bandwidth and delay. Bandwidth represents the maximum capacity of the link, while delay measures the time it takes for a packet to traverse the link. EIGRP combines these metrics to determine the most efficient route to a destination. Additionally, it can consider other factors like load and reliability if configured, but bandwidth and delay are the fundamental metrics used in its default calculations.
