Configuring the default link metric value globally

You can configure the metric value globally on all active IS-IS interfaces for the IS-IS IPv6 address family. The following task sets the IS-IS default link metric value for Level 1 for the IPv6 address family.

Procedure

  1. Enter the configure terminal command to access global configuration mode.
    device# configure terminal
  2. Enter the router isis command to enter IS-IS router configuration mode and enable IS-IS on the device.
    device(config)# router isis
    
  3. Enter the address-family ipv6 unicast command to enable ISIS address-family IPv6 unicast configuration mode.
    device(config-isis-router)# address-family ipv6 unicast
    
  4. Enter the default-link-metric command with the level-1 parameter, and specify a value, to set the IS-IS default link metric value for Level 1 for the IPv6 address family.
    device(config-router-isis-ipv6u)# default-link-metric level-1 45
    

Example

The following example sets the IS-IS default link metric value for Level 1 for the IPv6 address family.

device# configure terminal
device(config)# router isis
device(config-isis-router)# address-family ipv6 unicast
device(config-router-isis-ipv6u)# default-link-metric level-1 45
