Bruno,

> Waiting some more details, as per you below email, the IS-IS receiver does have a queue, sometimes dedicated to IS-IS, but in general relatively dedicated to very important and time sensitive traffic to the control plane. Details are indeed implementation specific. But in general, this queue is designed to protect the IS-IS traffic from lower priority traffic, e.g. burstyBGP.. So can we assume that the receiver have (or at least may have) such a queue, and work with this?


That would be ideal, but probably not realistic. Not all implementations are going to have separate queues for BGP and IS-IS.

IMHO, that’s a very good thing, of course, but not all merchant silicon is quite that sophisticated. Yet. And it takes years to change, so it’s best that we proceed without.
