The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Restart signaling for IS-IS ' <draft-ietf-isis-restart-05.txt> as an Informational RFC This document is the product of the IS-IS for IP Internets Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Alex Zinin and Bill Fenner. Technical Summary This document describes a mechanism that helps to avoid unnecessary disruption in an IS-IS domain when a router reloads. The mechanism ensures correct database synchronization and final convergence of the routing algorithm. Working Group Summary The specification went through a substential technical review by the WG. There was a consensus within a WG on this document. Protocol Quality The documents has been reviewed by the Routing Area Directorate (Chris Hopps and Jeff Parker) and Alex Zinin. RFC Editor Note Section 1. "Conventions used in this document", paras 2 and 3: OLD: If the control and forwarding functions in a router can be maintained independently, it is possible for the forwarding function state to be maintained across a control function restart. This functionality is assumed when the terms "restart/restarting" are used in this document. The terms "start/starting" are used to refer to a router in which the control function has either been started for the first time or has been restarted but the forwarding functions have not been maintained in a prior state. NEW: If the control and forwarding functions in a router can be maintained independently, it is possible for the forwarding function state to be maintained across a resumption of control function operations. This functionality is assumed when the terms "restart/restarting" are used in this document. The terms "start/starting" are used to refer to a router in which the control function has either commenced operations for the first time or has resumed operations but the forwarding functions have not been maintained in a prior state."
