Subject: ISIS and OSPF together Date: Sun, May 12, 2013 at 02:11:37PM +0530 Quoting Glen Kent (glen.kent@gmail.com):
Hi,
I would like to understand the scenarios wherein the service provider/network admin might run both ISIS and OSPF together inside their network. Is this something that really happens out there?
Indeed; one of the more sane situations might be to have say anycast name servers or full-service resolvers in the network and having them talk OSPF to the first hop router. ISIS daemons on PC operating systems are scarce, working ones hardly exist. It is clear, though, that the path forward is ISIS; most people I've spoken to roll it out (in greenfield/forklift situations) or migrate to it. -- Måns Nilsson primary/secondary/besserwisser/machina MN-1334-RIPE +46 705 989668 I always have fun because I'm out of my mind!!!
