IS-IS, the Intermediate System to Intermediate System protocol, has been used effectively as a routing protocol for many large-scale networks, including service provider backbone, telephone system management, and power equipment networks. Used in conjunction with the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP), IS-IS offers Internet Service Providers and the administrators of other large networks advanced flexibility and scalability. As a result, the number of complex networks employing the IS-IS protocol has grown tremendously.
IS-IS: Deployment in IP Networks is a hands-on guide for network engineers deploying, maintaining, and building IS-IS networks. Based on both the best practices of current implementations and the specifications of the protocol, IS-IS provides highly valuable configuration examples using Cisco IOS Software combined with real-life, expert descriptions, analysis, and advice. Readers will also find case studies and operational theory about this powerful and popular routing protocol.
Coverage includes:
Examining the IS-IS protocol from its origins to the most recent innovations, this book covers all of the protocol's pieces, packets, deployment strategies, and issues. It is a valuable resource for networking students preparing for the CCIE® (Cisco Certified Internetwork Expert) exam.
Russ White, a Routing Protocols Deployment Engineer at Cisco Systems, is a frequent Networkers speaker on routing protocols and router architecture, and the coauthor of several IETF requests for comments (RFCs). He is well known within and outside Cisco for his routing protocols expertise. Russ is CCIE #2635, and one of the reviewers and question writers for the CCIE written exam.
Alvaro Retana, a Technical Leader in Cisco Systems' Core IP Engineering Department, has first-hand expertise in the development and testing of routing protocols such as IS-IS, OSPF, RIP, EIGRP, and BGP4. Alvaro is CCIE #1609, and serves as an Adjunct Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Duke University.
