By default, IS-IS is disabled.
Setting the IS level and circuit level
Follow these guidelines when you configure the IS level for routers in only one area:
•
Set the IS level of all routers to Level-1 or Level-2 rather than different levels because the
routers do not need to maintain two identical LSDBs.
•
Set the IS level to Level-2 on all routers in an IP network for good scalability.
For an interface of a Level-1 or Level-2 router, the circuit level can only be Level-1 or Level-2. For an
interface of a Level-1-2 router, the default circuit level is Level-1-2. If the router only needs to form
Level-1 or Level-2 neighbor relationships, set the circuit level for its interfaces to Level-1 or Level-2.
This will limit neighbor relationship establishment.

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. However, P2P
interfaces on a network do not need to elect the DIS, and have a different LSDB synchronization
mechanism.
