Hello Brian,

I think that using GRE tunels through NBMA for IS-IS is good technique
which avoid keepeng in mind about NBMA topology :-)

BD> The issue with ISIS over frame-relay is with a point-to-point subinterface
BD> to a multipoint subinterface or to a physical interface.

BD> I just retested all this in my lab and confirmed what works and what doesn'
t

BD> Works:
BD> 1. point-to-point subinterface to a point-to-point subinterface
BD> 2. physical interface to a physical interface
BD> 3. mulitpoint subinterface to a multipoint subinterface
BD> 4. multipoint subinterface to a physical interface

BD> Doesn't work:
BD> 1. point-to-point subinterface to a physical interface
BD> 2. point-to-point subinterface to a multipoint subinterface

BD> Basically the issue is with point-to-point interfaces sending point-to-poin
t
BD> IIH's (ISIS hellos) and multipoint or physical interfaces sending LAN IIH's
.
BD> There isn't a way to change the hello types.

BD> Also remember that if you're going to run ISIS over frame relay on a
