It seems a lot of ISP's use ISIS because they have been running it so long
and not many people really want to mess with for fear of breaking something,
so it seems to hang around. The hosting companies in my area us POS across
their backbone.

About 2 years ago, I worked in a NOC environment at Sprint. We used POS
throughout our backbone. As a sidenote, we also used ISIS as our IGP.

At one point in time ATM OC-12c was the way to go, but there has
certainly
been a lot of buzz revolving around POS. What about DPT?
