Section13.6.6.2
Configuring an Interface
When IS-IS is enabled, two interfaces are already configured: fe-cm-01 and switch.0001.
To configure optional parameters for these and any other interfaces that have been added for IS-IS, do the
following:
1. Make sure the CLI is in Configuration mode.
2. Navigate to the interface by typing:
routing isis interface name
Where:
• name is the name of the interface. If the desired interface is not available, it must be created as a VLAN. For
more information about creating a VLAN, refer to Section8.5, “Managing VLANs”.
3. Configure the following parameter(s) as required:
Parameter Description
{ ifname } Synopsis:  A string
Interface name.
ipv4-area-tag { ipv4-area-tag } Synopsis:  A string
Name of Area Tag to be used for IS-IS over IPv4.
circuit-type { circuit-type } Synopsis:  { level-1-only, level-2-only, level-1-2 }
The IS-IS Circuit Type. Level-1 routers have neighbors only on the same area. Level-2
(backbone) can have neighbors on different areas. Level-1-2 can have neighbors on any
areas. Default is level-1-2.
