Looking for information on IGP choices in dual-stack networks

[victor at jvknet.com (Victor Kuarsingh)]

I/we (Philip and I) attempted to keep the question as generic as 
possible, allowing folks to state the IGPs they use, in whichever 
combination or in some cases (as we can see), more complex deployments.

I would agree with statements form Joel earlier with respect to cases 
where early vendor support may have influenced some network zones 
(inside a given AS) to support a different IGP (his case of OSPFv3 for 
devices which lacked IS-IS support is one I did face a few years back as 
well in the DC with respect to Load balancing  and Firewall devices).

The merger one was a new one for me, but it seems to reflect some 
peoples reality.


regards,

Victor K
