I was just curious - why would IS-IS be more die-hard than OSPF or iBGP?
It's like running apps on Solaris and Oracle these days instead of Linux and MySQL. Both options work if you know what you're doing, but it's way easier (and cheaper) to hire admins for the latter. When was the last time you ran into a younger neteng designing his topology who went "Yes! IS-IS!"? It works fine (very well in fact) but it's just less used. I know there are a lot of guys on here using IS-IS and I'm certainly not knocking it... </flamewarprotection> -Jack
