[c-nsp] Cisco ME3800X with EIGRP

[steve at itps.uk.net]

Hi NSP,

Is anyone familiar with the 3800X and why we are unable to configure EIGRP
for IPv6 even though its clearly stated in the configuration guide as
available?

http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/switches/metro/me3600x_3800x/software/r
elease/15-3_1_S/configuration/guide/3800x3600xscg/swipv6.html#wp1117377

We are a cisco only shop and prefer to use EIGRP to distribute our loopbacks
and backbone links and we've came across this issue while trying to dual
stack.

I suspect this is an error in the document as the commands simply aren't
there, if so - anyone got any inside info on if cisco plan to support eigrp
for IPv6 on their own switch anytime soon!?

Just found a section that states there's plenty missing for IPv6 with these
switches - can anyone elaborate why cisco isn't putting the features into
this switch, this has been excellent for us as ipv4 mini-pe.

Unsupported IPv6 Unicast Routing Features
.IPv6 policy-based routing
.IPv6 virtual private network (VPN) routing and forwarding (VRF) table
support
.IPv6 packets destined to site-local addresses
.Tunneling protocols, such as IPv4-to-IPv6 or IPv6-to-IPv4
.The switch as a tunnel endpoint supporting IPv4-to-IPv6 or IPv6-to-IPv4
tunneling protocols
.IPv6 unicast reverse-path forwarding
.IPv6 general prefixes
.HSRP for IPv6
.SNMP and Syslog over IPv6
.MPLS for IPv6
.ACL for IPv6
.BFD for IPv6

Many thanks
