View Level 1 Remote Area Information

About this task

Perform this procedure to display Level 1 remote area information. Remote Intermediate-System-to-Intermediate-System (IS-IS) provides support for hierarchical routing, which enables the system to partition large routing domains into smaller areas. Remote IS-IS uses a two-level hierarchy, dividing the domain into multiple Level 1 areas and one Level 2 area. The Level 2 area serves as backbone of the domain, connecting to all the Level 1 areas.

Important

Important

Procedure
