Very Good. :)
Very Good. 
You could also configure the router to take Load and Reliability into account - but that's not the default setting.
Cheers,
Ron

MTU is not part of the metric.
The Sybex book is wrong on that point. 
The IGRP metric is only affected by Bandwidth, Delay, Load, and Reliability.
From the Cisco website:
"Although they are not used as part of the metric, two addition pieces of information are passed with it: hop count and MTU."

You gave the choices as
a. Hop Count
b. Delay
c. Load
d. MTU
e. Reliability
f. TTL
g. Variance
quote: Originally posted by haseeb_eng
IGRP uses Bandwidth & Delay by default to calculate metric
This is what I learned, but Bandwidth is not one of the choices. So technically the only right answer on that list is b?

a tactical thing...
it's strictly a tactical thing, but whenever a practice exam lets you choose > 1 choice, your natural tendency is to assume there's >1 right answer, otherwise they would have made it a radio button question. And there almost always is but nowhere is it decreed that it HAS TO BE!!!
Of course multiple multiple choice questions just decrease your odds of guessing it right: instead of a 1/n chance you now have odds 1/(2^n -1) we assume you have to set at least one bit in the answer, -- no zero subnet hehe.....
Just another trick. Thanks Ron! Don't be fooled.
