isis password

Use this command to configure an authentication password for the interface.

Syntax

isis password password [level-1 | level-2]
no isis password password [level-1 | level-2]

Parameters

password Specifies an authentication password for the interface.
level-1 (Optional) Specifies that the configured password is applied to level 1 for the interface.
level-2 (Optional) Specifies that the configured password is applied to level 2 for the interface.

Defaults

If an IS-IS level is not specified, the level type defaults to both level 1 and level 2.

Mode

Interface configuration.

Usage

Entering a password on an interface overrides any device level key chain or password configuration for the interface. Both a key chain and password can not coexist on an interface. If a key chain configuration already exists on the interface, it must be removed before configuring an interface level password.

The “no” form of this command removes the IS-IS password configuration on the interface.
