A proposed minor addition to the IS-IS protocol was submitted to ANSI committee X383 in May of 1990, and was subsequently redistributed to other ISO members committees.
The proposed change may substantially reduce the demands of running the protocol to make it feasible to implement on very inexpensive machines and slow-speed links.
Included is a copy of the original submission, despite its colloquial rather than academic style, as a courtesy to anyone who is interested in reviewing the proposal in a timely fashion.
The author gratefully acknowledges the support of the National Institute of Science and Technology (NIST), award number 60NANB8D0830.
