Intermediate System-to-Intermediate System (IS-IS) protocol is a routing protocol developed by the
ISO. It is a link-state protocol where IS routers exchange routing inf orm atio n b ased on a sing le me tric
to determine network topology. It behaves in a manner similar to OSPF in the TCP/IP network.
IS-IS networks contain end systems, intermediate systems, areas, and domains. End systems are user
devices. Intermediate systems are routers. Routers are organiz ed into local groups called areas, and areas
are grouped into a domain. For configuring IS-IS, see Configuring IS-IS, page 12-121.
To view IS-IS properties:
Step 1 In Prime Network Vision, double-click the device configured for IS-IS.
Step 2 In the inventory window, choose Logical Inventory > IS-IS > System.
Figure 12-73 shows an example of the IS-IS window with the Process table in logical inventory.
