Description
Enter the mesh group number here. This is used to optimize Link-State Packet
(LSP) flooding on point-to-point networks. Select the Block option to specify that
no LSP flooding will take place on this interface. Select the Default option to use
the default setting.
Enter the retransmit interval value here. This is used to configure the time
between the retransmission of each link-state packet on a point-to-point link. The
range is from 1 to 65535 seconds.
Select to enable or disable the network point-to-point feature here. This is used to
configure a network of only two networking devices that use broadcast media and
the integrated ISIS routing protocol to function as a point-to-point link instead of a
broadcast link.
Enter the time interval value between transmissions of level-1 CSNPs here. This
interval only applies to the designated router. The range is from 1 to 65535
seconds. Select the Default option to use the default value.
Enter the time interval value between transmissions of level-2 CSNPs here. This
interval only applies to the designated router. The range is from 1 to 65535
seconds. Select the Default option to use the default value.
Enter the time interval value between transmissions of level-1 hello packets here.
The range is from 1 to 65535 seconds. Select the Default option to use the
default value.
Enter the time interval value between transmissions of level-2 hello packets here.
The range is from 1 to 65535 seconds. Select the Default option to use the
default value.
Enter the hello multiplier level-1 value here. The hello multiplier times the hello
interval is equal to the hold time, which is advertised in ISIS hello packets. Using
a smaller hello multiplier will get fast convergence. But it can result in more
routing instability. When network stability is needed, set the hello multiplier to a
larger value. The range is from 2 to 100. Select the Default option to use the
default value.
Enter the hello multiplier level-2 value here. The range is from 2 to 100. Select the
Default option to use the default value.
Enter the ISIS metric value here. This is assigned to the link and used to calculate
the cost from each router via the links in the network to other destinations. This
metric should be used only in the SPF calculation for Level 1 routing. The range is
from 1 to 63. Select the Default option to use the default value.
Enter the ISIS metric value here. This is assigned to the link and used to calculate
the cost from each router via the links in the network to other destinations. This
metric should be used only in the SPF calculation for Level 2 routing. The range is
from 1 to 63. Select the Default option to use the default value.
Enter the ISIS password used in level-1 routing here. This enables the prevention
of unauthorized routers from forming adjacencies with this router, and thus
protects the network from intruders. The password is exchanged as plain text and
thus provides only limited security. This can be up to 16 characters long. Select
the Default option to use the default setting.
Enter the ISIS password used in level-2 routing here. This can be up to 16
characters long. Select the Default option to use the default setting.
Enter the priority value of a Switch used in level-1 routing here. The priority is
used to determine which router on a LAN will be the DIS. The priority is advertised
in the hello packets. The device with the highest priority will become the DIS.
In ISIS, there is no backup designated router. Setting the priority to 0 lowers the
chance of this system becoming the DIS, but does not prevent it. If a system with
a higher priority comes up, it will take over the role from the current DIS. In the
case of equal priorities, the highest MAC address breaks the tie.
The range is from 0 to 127. Select the Default option to use the default value.
Enter the priority value of a Switch used in level-2 routing here. The range is from
378
