Saying that IS-IS in FRR is broken is incorrect, that it is in many ways weird - no offense to folks who coded it :) (especially if you have worked with commercial code bases), that it doesn’t scale/naive, missing features - for sure. FRR runs today some of the biggest DCs in the world and is reasonably stable within the feature set used (RFC7938), there’s interest in further IS-IS development - you could see some minor bug fixes/features coming from a particular company, if you are interested - join them and work together. FRR is an Open Source project, whining about missing features is not helpful, coding (or at least testing) and contributing is. Cheers, Jeff

Catalogued here: https://lists.frrouting.org/pipermail/frog/2023-March/001265.html I have no doubt FRR can talk IS-IS to other instances of FRR, but that is not a realistic scenario in a large scale network with multiple vendors.And do add, IS-IS in Quagga has been broken from the get. There is no work happening there to develop it. All hopes for a working IS-IS in non-commercial vendor code is happening in FRR. I have not considered IS-IS in VyOS, as the my use-case is for Anycast running on FreeBSD. Mark.
