Exactly. Eigrp over shared media has serious scalability issues. I've seen
25-30 peers in a shared media environment that caused problems but this was
exacerbated by overdriven routers. Eigrp can be terrible in an unstable
environment but for enteprise networks is generally fairly solid, and
certainly easily configured/managed.
