[c-nsp] Cisco ME3800X with EIGRP

Yeah whilst PBR may be activated with a sdm template I don’t think EIGRP v6 will be as its defined as an unsupported feature at the top of the document.

I think this document "Configuring Unicast IPv6 routing" is a standard template and they have simply stated eigrpv6 is unsupported despite there being sections about it in the document.

Thanks to all who responded :)

Apparently the scaled license is also required in order to support Policy Based Routing.  It seems counter-intuitive given it's a "scale"
not a "feature" license, but it's documented here:

http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/switches/metro/me3600x_3800x/software/release/15-4_1_S/configuration/guide/3800x3600xscg/swpbr.html

I ran into this 18 months ago.  I think it's inconsistent and a pretty nasty gotcha for the uninitiated.
