Abstract

This document assumes basic familiarity with CLNP, ES-IS, IS-IS, ARP, and IP. The design in this document attempts to minimize routing control traffic and manual configuration. The issues involve judicious use of CLNP addressing whenever possible, protocol differentiation (also sometimes called encapsulation) for coexistence with other protocols running over the NBMA, enabling ESs to find an active IS, enabling ISs to find each other, optimizing routes across NBMA (eliminating double-hopping across NBMA), and efficient and reliable distribution of LSPs (link state packets) across NBMA.
