Configuring an IPv6 IS-IS Accept Policy for a specific Advertising BEB

Configure an IPv6 IS-IS accept policy to apply to a specific advertising Backbone Edge Bridge (BEB). Specify the SPBM nickname and the IS-IS accept policy name to allow you to apply the IPv6 IS-IS accept policy.

The system uses the default global filter unless a filter for a specific advertising BEB exists, in which case the system applies a more specific filter.

Note

Note

If the route policy changes, you must re-apply the IPv6 IS-IS accept policy, unless it was the last sequence in the configuration.

Before you begin

  • Enable IS-IS globally.

  • Ensure the manual area exists.

  • You must configure a route-map.

  • Change the VRF instance as required to configure an IPv6 IS-IS accept policy for a particular advertising BEB on a specific VRF instance. Not all parameters are configurable on non-default VRFs.
