Can somebody give me an update on the latest status of the IS-IS ISO
protocol? Is it in a draft stage or is it becoming an ISO standard real
soon now??
Are any of the router vendors implementing it yet? (i.e. cisco, 
wellfleet, etc).

The reason I am posing this question is that I am getting involved
with building networks that need to support both TCP/IP and ISO
protocols and routing. I am being told that due to the deficiencies 
in the ISO routing protocols we need to keep the LANS and routers
organized in a non-hierachical fashion if we want to run both
protocols on the same networks.

Does the implementation and acceptance if IS-IS protocols going
to address this probem?? Or is there a problem??

Thanks in advance,
