Configure Is-Is Overload Bit Avoidance - Cisco NCS 5500 Series Configuration Manuals

Configure IS-IS Overload Bit Avoidance

Note The IS-IS overload bit avoidance feature does not change the default behavior on nodes that have their overload
bit set if those nodes are not included in the path calculation (PCALC).
The IS-IS overload bit avoidance feature is activated using the following command:
mpls traffic-eng path-selection ignore overload
The IS-IS overload bit avoidance feature is deactivated using the no form of this command:
no mpls traffic-eng path-selection ignore overload
When the IS-IS overload bit avoidance feature is deactivated, nodes with the overload bit set cannot be used
as nodes of last resort.
