Average Rating: 
Rating: - Excellent book!
In this volume you can tell that Jeff Doyle is getting better and better at conveying complex concepts in an entertaining and informative way. This book is a main stay in my CCIE preparation regarding the link state protocols. I've advised this book to several people, all of which have been very pleased.
I very much enjoy the granular detail of both protocols. Such detail into the functions of each protocol truly allows the engineer to select the right protocol for the job.
Rating: - Excellent OSPF text!
After thoroughly reading the OSPF chapter of Jeff Doyle's Cisco Press title, I scored 100% on the OSPF section of my CCNP Routing exam. This great books gives you the same great information, but presented in a different manner teaching you OSPF/IS-IS on both Cisco and JUNOS side by side. After reading this book, I am confident I could score 100% again.
If you're a hardcore OSPF fan, you will love this book.
Rating: - A top pick for any in-depth computer library seeking lasting references.
Any advanced computer library collection specializing in programmer guides for network designers will want OSPF and IS-IS: Choosing an IGP for Large-Scale Networks: it covers large-scale systems operating in the real world and is organized to help network engineers and architects compare OSPF and IS-IS. From understanding message types and improving scalability to designing large-scale networks for maximum security, OSPF AND IS-IS is a top pick for any in-depth computer library seeking lasting references.
Rating: - Excellent Comparative Reference on OSPF and IS-IS (IPv4 and IPv6)
OSPF and IS-IS : Choosing an IGP for Large-Scale Networks is an excellent source for understanding the similarities and differences of IS-IS and OSPF all in one book. It is the only book available with such complete coverage comparing these two IGP routing protocols.
There have been many official and unofficial debates over which protocol is better. Finally, the common problem of choosing one IGP routing protocol over the other or the second guessing of an IGP deployment choice can now be put ... Read More
Rating: - nice chapter on the development of the Internet
Doyle gives us a very understandable discourse on the OSPF and IS-IS routing methods. These are implemented by Cisco and Juniper routers. Cisco dominates the networking arena, while Juniper is one of the larger secondary players. So understanding OSPF and IS-IS is vital if your duties involve administering networks using those companies' devices.
The link state nature of the OSPF and IS-IS protocols is shown to scale much more easily to large networks, as compared to vector protocols. The latter ... Read More
