EIGRP Metric Type 1 is preferred over Type 2 Traffic is expected to pass via R4, but because of the metric type configured, R3 is preferred. We can assume that traffic manipulation is already configured to prioritize R4.

If both R3 and R4 redistribute the EIGRP as E2 routes, how do we know that R4 will be a lower metric? It doesn't give us the details ospf costs on the R2 links.

Yes, but the most used link today is over 100mbit, so we maybe can assume the total cost for R1 to R3 is 2 using type 1. And since E2 default redist eigrp as cost of 20. The only possible solution i see with this limited info is tho redis eigrp with type one metric of 20 (higher than R3) would gives path via R3 22 and via R4 20.

Nvm, forgott E1 is prefered over E2. Static wont work either, not r1 in a0 either.
