[comp.dcom.sys.cisco] link-state implementations?

jah@margo.ots.utexas.edu (Jeff Hayward) (08/21/90)

Recent claims of convergence times < 10 seconds for medium to large scale
networks using link-state route calculations have given me a twinge of
envy.  Can anyone comment on the likely hood of seeing either DIS or
OSPF from cisco?

cisco will support both OSPF and IS-IS (DP-10589).  No firm dates yet.
