Set Priority
This example describes how to set the priority for an interface. Set a high priority for a router to make it the Designated IS (DIS). Router R3 is configured to have a priority of 70, this is higher than the default priority (64) of R1 and R2. This makes R3 the DIS.

Configuration
R1
#configure terminal | Enter configure mode. |
(config)#interface eth1 | Enter interface mode. |
(config-if)#ipv6 router isis ABC | Enable IS-ISv6 routing on an interface for area 49(ABC). |
(config-if)#ipv6 address 1000::1/64 | Configure IPv6 address on interface. |
(config-if)#exit | Exit interface mode. |
(config)#router isis ABC | Create an IS-IS routing instance for area 49 (ABC). |
(config-router)#is-type level-2-only | Configure instance as level-2-only routing. |
(config-router)#net 49.0005.0000.0000.0001.00 | Set a Network Entity Title for this instance, specifying the area address and the system ID. |
R2
#configure terminal | Enter configure mode. |
(config)#interface eth1 | Enter interface mode. |
(config-if)#ipv6 router isis ABC | Enable IS-ISv6 routing on an interface for area 49(ABC). |
(config-if)#ipv6 address 1000::2/64 | Configure IPv6 address on interface. |
(config-if)#isis priority 125 | Specify the router priority to a higher priority (125) to make R2 the designated IS (DIS). |
(config-if)#exit | Exit interface mode. |
(config)#router isis ABC | Create an IS-IS routing instance for area 49 (ABC). |
(config-router)#is-type level-2-only | Configure instance as level-2-only routing. |
(config-router)#net 49.0005.0000.0000.0002.00 | Set a Network Entity Title for this instance, specifying the area address and the system ID. |
