i may have missed it, but one of my fave features of is-is is that it is
a link-local non-ip protocol.  hard to disrupt/attack remotely.
This is overlooked far too often IMNSHO. As is the comparison of 
error/attack surface of "feature-rich" OSPF against "lean" IS-IS.

i just wish the is-is protocol folk had not suffered from so much ospf
feature envy and garbaged it up in a futile attempt to penetrate the
enterprise.
