6. Configure the redistribution of other protocols if necessary.
7. Verify EIGRP operation.
The first step to configure EIGRP is to enable it in global configuration mode using the
feature command, as demonstrated in Example 3-2. With the modular nature of NX-OS,
using the feature command loads the EIGRP modular code into memory for execution.
Without the feature enabled, it would not be resident in memory.

As with IOS-based EIGRP configuration, the next step is to configure the EIGRP routing
process, as demonstrated in Example 3-3. In NX-OS, you configure an instance tag for the
process. Traditionally in IOS this would be the autonomous system (AS) number. In NX-OS
the instance tag can be the AS, but in addition the instance tag can be up to 20 casesensitive,
alphanumeric characters.
