Assuming &nbsp;everything else is equal except for the bandwidth &nbsp;as mentioned above then &nbsp;if I understand your statement the path R1-R5-R6-R4 &nbsp;is Selected.<br />
<br />
if so then Why ?

Assuming  everything else is equal except for the bandwidth  as mentioned above then  if I understand your statement the path R1-R5-R6-R4  is Selected.

if so then Why ?

<div>
The path is calculated through the topology and the throughput in the first line R1-R2-R3-R4 is the 128kb connection. <br />
so the total K value of that road is higher then the R2-R5-R5-R4 road.

by the way 1.544kbps I meant 1.544Mbps<br />
<br />
So the Throughput via : R1---&gt;R2---&gt;R3----R4 &nbsp; is higher &nbsp;even with &nbsp;one link that has 128 Kbps<br />
So why would it take the path : &nbsp;R1----&gt;R5---&gt;R6----R4 instead of &nbsp;R1---&gt;R2---&gt;R3----R4

Assuming R1 has 2 paths to reach route 11.11.11.11 behind R4<br />
<br />
R1---&gt;R2---&gt;R3----R4<br />
R1----&gt;R5---&gt;R6----R4<br />
<br />
The bandwidth : R1 to R2 &nbsp;:1.544kbps &nbsp;R2 to R3: 128Kbps &nbsp;R3 to R4 : 1.544kbps<br />
<br />
The bandwidth : R1 to R5 &nbsp;:256Kbps &nbsp;R5 to R6: 256Kbps &nbsp;R6 to R4 : 256 Kbps<br />
<br />
Which path R1 will choose to reach R4 ?<br />
<br />
Thank you

A router is a networking device that forwards data packets between computer networks. Routers perform the "traffic directing" functions on the Internet. The most familiar type of routers are home and small office cable or DSL routers that simply pass data, such as web pages, email, IM, and videos between computers and the Internet. More sophisticated routers, such as enterprise routers, connect large business or ISP networks up to the powerful core routers that forward data at high speed along the optical fiber lines of the Internet backbone. Though routers are typically dedicated hardware devices, use of software-based routers has grown increasingly common.

Networking is the process of connecting computing devices, peripherals and terminals together through a system that uses wiring, cabling or radio waves that enable their users to communicate, share information and interact over distances. Often associated are issues regarding operating systems, hardware and equipment, cloud and virtual networking, protocols, architecture, storage and management.
