HP 6125XLG - Configuring P2 P Network Type for an Interface; Configuring IS-IS Route Control; Configuration Prerequisites

117
To configure the IS level and circuit level:
Ste
p
Command
Remarks
1. Enter system view.
system-view N/A
2. Enter IS-IS view.
isis [ process-id ] [ vpn-instance
vpn-instance-name ]
N/A
3. Specify the IS level.
is-level { level-1 | level-1-2 |
level-2 }
By default, the IS level is Level-1-2.
4. Return to system view.
quit N/A
5. Enter interface view.
interface interface-type
interface-number
N/A
6. Specify the circuit level.
isis circuit-level [ level-1 | level-1-2
| level-2 ]
By default, an interface can establish
either the Level-1 or Level-2
adjacency.
Configuring P2P network type for an interface
Perform this task only for a broadcast network that has up to two attached routers.
Interfaces with different network types operate differently. For example, broadcast interfaces on a
network must elect the DIS and flood CSNP packets to synchronize the LSDBs, but P2P interfaces on a
network do not need to elect the DIS, and have a different LSDB synchronization mechanism.
If only two routers exist on a broadcast network, configure the network type of attached interfaces as P2P
to avoid DIS election and CSNP flooding, saving network bandwidth and speeding up network
convergence.

3. Configure P2P network type for an
interface.
isis circuit-type p2p
By default, the network type of an
interface depends on the physical
media. The network type of a
VLAN interface is broadcast.
Configuring IS-IS route control
Configuration prerequisites
Before the configuration, complete the following tasks:
• Configure IP addresses for interfaces to ensure IP connectivity between neighboring nodes.
• Enable IS-IS.
