Interface subtype configuration mode

IS-IS is supported only on devices based on the DNX chipset family. For a list of such devices, see "Supported Hardware".

The no form of the command removes the configured authentication mode.

The following example specifies that MD5 authentication is performed on Level 1 packets on an IS-IS Ethernet interface.

device# configure terminal
device(config)# interface ethernet 1/1
device(conf-if-eth-1/1)# isis auth-mode MD5 level-1
