Intermediate System to Intermediate System (IS-IS, also written ISIS) is a routing protocol designed to move information efficiently within a computer network, a group of physically connected computers or similar devices. It accomplishes this by determining the best route for data through a packet switching network.
The IS-IS protocol is defined in ISO/IEC 10589:2002[2][3] as an international standard within the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) reference design.
In 2005, IS-IS was called "the de facto standard for large service provider network backbones".[4]
