Administrative Groups (AG) provide a way to associate certain attributes or policies with connections between nodes , enabling network administrators to control the routing decisions based on specific criteria. Extended Administrative Groups (EAG) are an extension of AG which allow a larger range of admin groups to be utilized for various Traffic Engineering (TE) purposes within a network. EAGs are defined in a new sub-TLV for IS-IS link attributes, separate to AGs, however they are considered as one within EOS. The EAG feature in EOS allows the range of administrative color to be increased from 0-31 to 0-127.

IS-IS flexible algorithm (FlexAlgo) provides a lightweight, simplified mechanism for performing basic traffic engineering functions within a single IS-IS area. FlexAlgo requires the cooperation of all nodes within the IS-IS area but does not require an external controller. Paths are computed by each node within the area, resulting in an MPLS switched forwarding path to nodes that are advertising a node Segment Identifier (SID) for the algorithm. The results of the path computation are placed in the colored tunnel RIB or system tunnel RIB, which simplifies route resolution.
