Perlman's Interconnections is classic, since she did design the
protocol. Jeff Doyle also covers it in Routing TCP/IP.
Depends in part what you are trying to learn. The ISIS that major
ISPs run has a number of features that are not in the standards and
are poorly documented. For certification questions, they may be
adequate. The RFC is not easy reading, adapted as it is from an ISO
document. I do expect to write one or two CertificationZone white
papers on link state protocols (i.e., combined discussion of OSPF and
ISIS), but probably won't do that until the fall.
Dave Katz, who has probably written more ISIS code than anyone in the
world, did a presentation at the last Albuquerque NANOG meeting, see
www.nanog.org. I also have an ISIS tutorial that I didn't present at
NANOG due to illness, and I really should find somewhere to post it.
