Example: Configuring IS-IS FRR
Network requirements
As shown in
domain.
Configure IS-IS FRR to make sure when Link A fails, traffic will be switched to Link B immediately.

Requirements analysis
To make sure Link B is a backup for Link A, configure a greater cost for Link B.
To make sure Switch S can immediately detect failures on the link between Switch S and Switch A,
enable BFD on Switch S.
To make sure Link B takes effect immediately when Link A fails, enable FRR on Switch S by using the
fast-reroute auto command or by using a routing policy. When you enable IS-IS FRR to designate a
backup next hop by using a routing policy:
•
To allow only matching packets to be switched to the backup link, specify an IP prefix list.
To configure the backup route for link switchover, specify both the output interface and next hop
•
of the route in the routing policy.
Software version used
This configuration example was created and verified on S12500-CMW520-R1825P01.
Configuration restrictions and guidelines
When you configure IS-IS FRR, follow these restrictions and guidelines:
Do not use IS-IS FRR and IS-IS BFD at the same time.
