Configure Remote IS-IS Interfaces
About this task
Perform this procedure to configure the remote IS-IS interfaces. SPBM uses IS-IS to discover network topology, build shortest path trees between network nodes, and communicate network information in the control plane.
Procedure
- In the navigation pane, expand the folders.
- Select IS-IS Remote.
- Select the Interfaces tab.
- Select Insert to create a remote IS-IS instance.
- Configure the IS-IS interface parameters.
- Select Insert.
Interfaces Field Descriptions
Use the data in the following table to use theInterfaces tab.
Name |
Description |
---|---|
Index |
Specifies the identifier of the circuit, unique within the Intermediate System. This value is for SNMP Indexing purposes only and need not have any relation to any protocol value. |
IfIndex |
Specifies the interface on which the circuit is configured (port or MLT). |
Type |
Specifies the IS-IS circuit type. Only the point-to-point (PtToPt) interface type is supported. |
AdminState |
Specifies the administrative state of the circuit: on or off. |
OperState |
Specifies the operational state of the circuit. |
AuthType |
Specifies the authentication type:
The default is none. |
AuthKey |
Specifies the authentication key. |
KeyId |
Specifies the authentication key ID. |
LevelType |
Specifies the router type globally:
The default value is level1. |
NumAdj |
Specifies the number of adjacencies on this circuit. |
NumUpAdj |
Specifies the number of adjacencies that are up. |
AutoNniEnable |
Enable to have the node create an IS-IS interface, attach the interface to an SPBM instance, and then enable IS-IS on the port interface. This field displays on the Insert Interfaces dialog box and applies to port interfaces only. |
Origin |
Specifies the origin of the IS-IS circuit configuration on the port, either manually configured through CLI or EDM or dynamically configured through Auto-sense. |
