What is Isis routing protocol?

It is a hybrid routing protocol that provides routing protocols, distance vector, and link-state routing protocols. It will route the same protocols that IGRP routes using the same composite metrics as IGRP, which helps the network select the best path destination. ISIS routing protocol is used on the Internet to send IP routing information.
