The following table defines parameters for the ip address command.

Variable Value

<A.B.C.D/X>|<A.B.C.D> <A.B.C.D>

Specifies the IP address and subnet mask in the format A.B.C.D/X or A.B.C.D A.B.C.D.

multi-area-virtual-link

Specifies that the source IP address is used for a Mulit-area virtual NNI link.

<home | remote>

Specifies the transport area for the Multi-area virtual NNI link.

Note:

If you configure the loopback interface for the virtual NNI link in the home area, you must configure the IS-IS logical interface for the virtual NNI link in the remote area, and vice versa.

name WORD<0-64>

Specifies a name associated with the IP address.

Note:

If you do not assign a name when you configure virtual NNI links for Multi-Area boundary nodes for 5720 Series, 7520 Series, and 7720 Series, the system autogenerates the name and displays the name as Virtual-link.

The following tables define parameters for the logical-intf isis command.

Variable Value

<1-255>

Specifies the index number that uniquely identifies this logical interface.

dest-ip <A.B.C.D>

Specifies the destination IP address of the Multi-area virtual NNI link.

Note:

This IP address is the loopback source IP address.

multi-area-virtual-link

Specifies that the logical interface is used for a Multi-area virtual NNI link.

name WORD<1-64>

Specifies a name associated with the logical interface.

Note:

If you do not assign a name when you configure virtual NNI links for Multi-Area boundary nodes for 5720 Series, 7520 Series, and 7720 Series, the system autogenerates the name and displays the name as Virtual-link-x, where x is the logical interface ID.

The following tables define parameters for the isis command.

Variable Value

remote

Specifies the remote area as the IS-IS interface.

If the loopback interface for the virtual NNI link is configured in the remote area, omit this parameter.

enable

Enables the IS-IS interface for the virtual NNI link.

The default is disabled.

spbm <1-100>

Specifies the SPBM instance on the IS-IS interface.
