OSI Intermediate System (IS) to Intermediate System
routing is a protocol used to exchange information between Level 1
(intra-domain) routing devices in an OSI network. The OSI Intra-Domain IS-IS
Routing Protocol may be used as an interior gateway protocol (IGP) to support
TCP/IP as well as OSI. This allows a single routing protocol to be used to
support pure IP environments, pure OSI environments, and dual environments. A
specification has been developed by the IS-IS working group of the Internet
Engineering Task Force. The OSI IS-IS protocol has reached a mature state, and
is ready for implementation and operational use. The most recent version of the
OSI IS-IS protocol is contained in ISO DP 10589 [1]. The proposed standard for
using IS-IS for support of TCP/IP will therefore make use of this version (with
a minor bug correction, as discussed in Annex B). We expect that future
versions of this proposed standard will upgrade to the final International
Standard version of IS-IS when available.
