• <strong>IS</strong>-<strong>IS</strong> feature (RFC 2973)<br />

• Can sharply curtail LSP flooding in full-mesh<br />

topologies<br />

• Each router in mesh group receives only one<br />

copy of each LSP (one-hop flooding)<br />

LSPs (increased scalability, but increased risk)<br />

• <strong>OSPF</strong> has no comparable feature
