Abstract

Current Link State PDU flooding rates are much slower than whatmodern networks can support. The use of IS-IS at larger scalerequires faster flooding rates to achieve desired convergence goals. This document discusses the need for faster flooding, the issuesaround faster flooding, and some example approaches to achieve fasterflooding. It also defines protocol extensions relevant to fasterflooding.
