All I will say is DO NOT underestimate IS-IS. It isn't just an "added" topic. I would also warn that this exam is geared towards ISPs. It shouldn't be too much of a stretch of the imagination, then, that BGP is also well represented. I think a lot of folks are misled into believing that a small number of IS-IS questions are added to BSCN. I also think that a lot of folks mistakenly believe in the myth that OSPF and IS-IS are nearly identical. I personally would say that they are distant cousins. Yes, SPF is at the core. That is where the similarities begin to part company.
I know this isn't much on "detail." But that is as close to NDA as I am willing to go. By the way, I read my way through the various RFCs. Cisco Press has a new book out on the subject. I'm sure that is a much easier read.
