ISIS may be obscure, but it goes without saying that it is part and parcel
of the core topics (i.e., EIGRP, OSPF, BGP, Frame, etc.) and as such is
pretty important to know. One of the biggest things to note with ISIS is
that is it NOT a native IP routing protocol, and as such has some weird
quirks that you have to not only know but realize how to work with and in
some cases around.
Just my thoughts
