Metric Style Characteristics Cost Range Supported on IS-IS
Interfaces
wide transition Sends wide (new) TLVs and
accepts both narrow (old) and
wide (new) TLVs.
0 to 16777215
To change the IS-IS metric style of the IS-IS process, use the following command.
• Set the metric style for the IS-IS process.
ROUTER ISIS mode
metric-style {narrow [transition] | transition | wide [transition]} [level-1
| level-2]
The default is narrow.
The default is Level 1 and Level 2 (level-1–2)
To view which metric types are generated and received, use the show isis protocol command in
EXEC Privilege mode. The IS-IS matrixes settings are in bold.

Configuring the IS-IS Cost
When you change from one IS-IS metric style to another, the IS-IS metric value could be affected. For
each interface with IS-IS enabled, you can assign a cost or metric that is used in the link state calculation.
To change the metric or cost of the interface, use the following commands.
• Assign an IS-IS metric.
INTERFACE mode
