As far as I know, there is *active* development of IS-IS these days, see for instance: "IS-IS Optimized Multipath (ISIS-OMP)", Tony Li, Curtis Villamizar, 02/23/1999, "IS-IS extensions for Traffic Engineering", Tony Li, Henk Smit, 02/02/1999, "L1/L2 Optimal IS-IS Routing", Antoni Przygienda, Ajay Patel, 02/19/1999, "Domain-wide Prefix Distribution with Multi-Level IS-IS", Tony Li, 02/26/1999, Tony Li (Juniper, ex Cisco) is the head of this particular working group. Also, it's used by some rather big backbone providers. PS: No, this is not meant to start a flame war/discussion about the merits and demerits of various routing protocols. We use OSPF as an IGP ourselves. Steinar Haug, Nethelp consulting, sthaug@nethelp.no To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
