Hi Shane,
If the CAS is in Virtual gateway mode it will forward all broadcasts
(one of the reasons the trunk config has to be correct to prevent loops)
so yes it should work.

to put a router on the untrusted side of the CAS and another router on
the trusted side and I want an EIGRP neighbor relationship between the
2 routers with the CAS in between acting as a bridge.

Can I ask, what is the compelling reason for you to do this? The CAS
is an appliance, designed to perform a specific function in the NAC
deployment. While it might be able to function as a router, you will
now be asking the appliance to perform a function other than the one
for which it was originally intended, and deployed. The appliance now
will have to maintain a routing table, and a link table, and depending
upon the size of such tables, may consume additional resources
(memory/CPU) within the appliance - a resource utilization increase
that wasn't accounted for when the appliance was spec'd/sized.
Furthermore, you have added complexity to troubleshooting of any
issues on the device, as the device is now serving an ancilliary
function as well as the one for which it was intended. rebooting an
appliance in the course is one thing. With what you are proposing to
do, every time you need to do maintenance on the CAS, you will also be
doing maintenance on a router.
Let a router perform this function if at all possible.

Before I go cabling it up, does anyone see a problem with me running
EIGRP through a VG CAS? I can't imagine why it wouldn't work but I've
seen too many unimaginable things happen since I entered this NAC
world. Thanks.
