IISP Link Configuration Quickstart

The quickstart procedure in this section provides a summary of the tasks required to configure Interim
Inter-Switch Protocol (IISP) links on Cisco MGX switches. This procedure is provided as an overview
and as a quick reference for those who have previously configured these types of connections.
Note AINI is a newer protocol that is designed to replace the function of IISP. Unless you are configuring a
link with another switch that does not support AINI, you should configure an AINI link instead of an
IISP link. IISP links provide fewer capabilities than AINI links. For example, IISP links cannot support
UNI 4.0 connections.

when addresses are not dynamically assigned to the CPE at the
destination ports.
