IS-IS training and documentation suggestions

matthew-almand · ‎02-07-2008

I am looking for suggestions on training classes and documentation (books, web pages, etc.) on designing, deploying, and maintaining IS-IS.

Thanks in advance

Hi Matthew,

I can recommend you 2 books concerning Integrated IS-IS, both are from Ciscopress:

1. For introductory learning about IS-IS:

Building Scalable Cisco Internetworks (BSCI) Authorized Self-Study Guide.

This book has some basic practical configuration examples at the end of the chapter.

2. For more advanced learning:

Routing TCP/IP Volume I.

This book has some case studies and configuration excercises as well.

For practical studies, the best I can suggest you is having a set of (at least) small-scale routers.

Nothing can replace working on live routers.

Cheers:

Istvan
