Abstract:
   IS-IS is commonly used as an underlay routing protocol for MSDC
   (Massively Scalable Data Center) networks.  For a given IS-IS router
   within the CLOS topology, it would receive multiple copies of exactly
   the same LSP from multiple IS-IS neighbors.  In addition, two IS-IS
   neighbors may send each other the same LSP simultaneously.  The
   unneccessary link-state information flooding wastes the precious
   process resource of IS-IS routers greatly due to the fact that there
   are too many IS-IS neighbors for each IS-IS router within the CLOS
   topology.  This document proposes some extensions to IS-IS so as to
   reduce the IS-IS flooding within MSDC networks greatly.  The
   reduction of the IS-IS flooding is much beneficial to improve the
   scalability of MSDC networks.
