Even with non-Cisco gear, so long as you can keep it at the stubs of your
network, you'll be ok. At the least, you can have the non-Cisco gear talk
to the Cisco gear with RIPv2, and the Cisco side can redistribute RIPv2 into
EIGRP and have the non-Cisco gear at the fringes just default to the Cisco.
This is what we've migrated to internally from originally having just RIPv2.

unless you are confident that you will be only using Cisco gear the OSPF
would be a better choice. It also seems to me there is an increase in the
number of installations that I am seeing that are OSPF rather than EIGRP
based.
