IS-IS IPv6 VRF Configuration
Overview
Intermediate System to Intermediate System (IS-IS) is an interior routing protocol operating within a single administrative domain.It is a link-state routing protocol, operating by reliably flooding link state information throughout a network of routers. Each IS-IS router independently builds a database of the network's topology, aggregating the flooded network information. IS-IS uses Dijkstra's algorithm for computing the best path through the network. Packets (datagrams) are then forwarded, based on the computed ideal path, through the network to the destination.
