Output

The show isis interface command displays the following information:

Output field

Description

Total number of IS-IS interfaces

The number of interfaces on which IS-IS is enabled.

Interface

The interface number to which the information listed below applies.

Circuit State

The state of the circuit, which can be one of the following:

  • DOWN
  • UP

Circuit Mode

The IS-IS type in use on the circuit. The mode can be one of the following:

  • LEVEL-1
  • LEVEL-2
  • LEVEL-1-2

Circuit Type

The type of IS-IS circuit running on the interface. The circuit type can be one of the following:

  • BCAST (broadcast).
  • PTP (Point-to-Point)

Passive State

The passive state determines whether the interface is allowed to form an IS-IS adjacency with the IS at the other end of the circuit. The state can be one of the following:

  • FALSE - The passive option is disabled. The interface can form an adjacency with the IS at the other end of the link.
  • TRUE - The passive option is enabled. The interface cannot form an adjacency, but can still advertise itself into the area.

Circuit Number

The ID that the instance of IS-IS running on the interface applied to the circuit between this interface and the interface at the other end of the link.

MTU

The maximum length supported for IS-IS PDUs sent on this interface.

Level-1 Auth-mode

One of the following authentication modes set for Level-1 on the router:

  • None
  • md5
  • cleartext

Level-2 Auth-mode

One of the following authentication modes set for Level-2 on the router:

  • None
  • md5
  • cleartext

This parameter is not displayed for interfaces that are configured with a Point-to-Point circuit type. This is because separate Level-2 Hello messages are not sent on Point-to-Point interfaces. Consequently, "Hello Interval", "Hello Multiplier", and "Authentication" parameters should always be configured in the Level-1 mode for Point-to-Point interfaces.

Level-1 Metric

The default-metric value that the device inserts in IS-IS Level-1 PDUs for this interface.

Level-1 Priority

The priority of this IS to be elected as the Designated IS for Level-1 in this broadcast network.

Level-1 Hello Interval

The number of seconds the software waits between sending Level-1 hello PDUs to the IS at the other end of the circuit.

Level-1 Hello Multiplier

The number by which the software multiplies the hello interval to calculate the hold time set in Level-1 Hello PDUs sent on the circuit.

Level-1 Designated IS

The NET of the Level-1 Designated IS.

Level-1 DIS Changes

The number of times the NET of the Level-1 Designated IS has changed.

Level-2 Metric

The default-metric value that the device inserts in IS-IS Level-2 PDUs for this interface.

Level-2 Priority

The priority of this IS to be elected as the Designated IS for Level-2 in this broadcast network.

Level-2 Hello Interval

The number of seconds the software waits between sending Level-2 Hello messages to the IS at the other end of the circuit.

Level-2 Hello Multiplier

The number by which the software multiplies the hello interval to calculate the hold time set for Level-2 Hello PDUs sent on this circuit.

This parameter is not displayed for interfaces that are configured with a Point-to-Point circuit type. This is because separate Level-2 Hello messages are not sent on Point-to-Point interfaces. Consequently, "Hello Interval", "Hello Multiplier", and "Authentication" parameters should always be configured in the Level-1 mode for Point-to-Point interfaces.

Level-2 Designated IS

The NET of the Level-2 Designated IS.

Level-2 DIS Changes

The number of times the NET of the Level-2 Designated IS has changed.

Next IS-IS LAN Level-1 Hello

Number of seconds before next Level-1 Hello PDU will be transmitted by the device.

Next IS-IS LAN Level-2 Hello

Number of seconds before next Level-2 Hello PDU will be transmitted by the device.

Number of active Level-1 adjacencies

The number of ISs with which this interface has an active Level-1 adjacency.

Number of active Level-2 adjacencies

The number of ISs with which this interface has an active Level-2 adjacency.

Circuit State Changes

The number of times the state of the circuit has changed.

Circuit State Adjacencies Changes

The number of times an adjacency has started or ended on this circuit.

Rejected Adjacencies

The number of adjacency attempts by other ISs rejected by the device.

Circuit Authentication L1 failures

The number of times the device rejected a circuit because the authentication did not match the authentication configured for Level 1 on the device.

Circuit Authentication L2 failures

The number of times the device rejected a circuit because the authentication did not match the authentication configured for Level 2 on the device.

This parameter is not displayed for interfaces that are configured with a Point-to-Point circuit type. This is because separate Level-2 Hello messages are not sent on Point-to-Point interfaces. Consequently, "Hello Interval", "Hello Multiplier", and "Authentication" parameters should always be configured in the Level-1 mode for Point-to-Point interfaces.

Bad LSP

The number of times the interface received a bad LSP from an IS at the other end of the circuit. The following conditions can cause an LSP to be bad:

  • Invalid checksum
  • Invalid length
  • Invalid lifetime value

Control Messages Sent

The number of IS-IS control PDUs sent on this interface.

Control Messages Received

The number of IS-IS control PDUs received on this interface.

Hello Padding:

The Hello Padding configuration, which can be:

  • Enabled
  • Disabled

IP Enabled

If set to TRUE, the IP protocol is enabled for this circuit.

IP Address and Subnet Mask

The IP address and subnet mask for this interface.

IPv6 Enabled

If set to TRUE, the IPv6 protocol is enabled for this circuit.

IPv6 Address and Subnet Mask

The IPv6 address and subnet mask for this interface.

Ipv6 Link-Local Addresses

The IPv6 link local address for this interface.

MPLS TE Enabled:

If set to TRUE, MPLS Traffic Engineering protocol is enabled for this circuit.

BFD Enabled:

If set to TRUE, BiDirectional Forwarding Detection is enabled for this circuit.
