Additional Manual Area Address field is used to assign the second or a third (Hex)
Area address of the NE. Valid values are empty or 2-26 Hex (even numbers of digits
only).
NE IS-IS level
The NE IS-IS level field changes the IS-IS level of the network element. The possible
IS-IS level values for an NE are described in the table below:
IS-IS Functionality of NE Description
Level 1 Provides interconnectivity between network
elements in the same area.
Level 1+2 Provides interconnectivity between areas and
between network elements in the same area.
Level 1+2 Area Repair Access Provides interconnectivity between areas and

enables area partition repair access.
LAN IS-IS level
The LAN IS-IS level field changes the IS-IS level on the LAN port. The possible LAN
IS-IS level values are described in the table below:
LAN IS-IS Level Description
Follow NE IS-IS The LAN IS-IS level is the same as the level of the
network element provisioned in IS-IS level of NE. Under
normal circumstances the network element should use this
value.
Level 2 The LAN IS-IS level is set to level 2. This value should
only be used temporarily during upgrade activities.
None Disables the LAN (10BaseT) port of a network element
for the IS-IS protocol (NO-IS-IS). This value is used in
combination with static routing to the management system.
Designated router priority
The designated router priority is a value which indicates the priority of the designated
router connected to the LAN (10BaseT). A higher number has priority over a lower
one. Valid values are 0-127. The default value is 64. This value is composed in a
