It was interesting to see an IETF doc about EIGRP: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-savage-eigrp-00
I’m wondering if Cisco may be releasing this to the wider Internet community for possible industry standards consideration. While technically classified by Cisco as a distance-vector protocol, there are hybrid features of EIGRP that makes it attractive over traditional link-state IGPs like OSPF & IS-IS (which I'm a big fan of). However, what’s not so attractive is the proprietary nature (tied to Cisco) and lack of support on other big name vendor equipment. Maybe Cisco is looking to change this in the horizon.
I'd be interested to know what other ppl way smarter than me thinks. Thanks for your feedback.
