IS-IS Commands

Use this command to set the authentication password for the Level-1 area and to set authentication on Level-1 sequence number PDUs. This command enables authentication when receiving and sending link-state and sequence number PDUs in Level-1 areas. The password must be the same for all the ISIS routers in the same area.

Use the no parameter with this command to clear the area password.

Command Syntax

area-password WORD

area-password WORD authenticate snp (send-only|validate)

no area-password

Parameters

WORD

Password string.

authenticate

Insert the password into Level-1 SNP PDUs.

snp

Sequence number PDUs.

send-only

Only insert the password into the Level-1 sequence number PDUs, but not check the password in sequence number PDUs that it receives. Use this keyword during a software upgrade to ease the transition.

validate

Insert the password into Level-1 sequence number PDUs and check the password in sequence number PDUs that it receives.

Default

By default, the area password is not configured

Command Mode

Router mode

Applicability

This command was introduced before OcNOS version 1.3.

Examples

(config)#router isis bb

(config-router)#area-password mypasswd

(config)#router isis bb

(config-router)#area-password myPass authenticate snp send-only

(config)#router isis bb

(config-router)#no area-password

authentication key-chain

Use this command to set the key chain to be used for authentication at the instance level. Authentication mode must be set to md5 to configure the key chain. If no key chain is configured with the key-chain command, no key-chain authentication is performed.

Only one authentication key-chain is applied to an ISIS interface at a time. That is, issuing a second isis authentication key-chain command overrides the first isis authentication key-chain command. If neither the level-1 nor the level-2 keyword is configured, the chain applies to both levels. Authentication can be specified for an individual ISIS interface using the isis authentication key-chain command.

Use the no parameter with this command to unset the key chain used for authentication.

Command Syntax

authentication key-chain WORD (level-1|level-2|)

no authentication key-chain (level-1|level-2|)

Parameters

WORD

Specify the chain name (valid authentication keys).

level-1

Specify an authentication key-chain for level-1 PDUs.

level-2

Specify an authentication key-chain for level-2 PDUs.

Default

The key chain applies to the level(s) on which authentication mode is configured as MD5 if no level is specified.

Command Mode

Router mode

Applicability

This command was introduced before OcNOS version 1.3.

Example

#configure terminal

(config)#router isis 1

(config-router)#authentication key-chain myKey level-1

authentication mode

Use this command to set the authentication mode at the instance level.

If clear-text authentication was configured using the area-password or domain password commands, the authentication mode command overrides both of those commands (based on the level at which MD5 is configured). If the authentication mode command was used first, and subsequently an attempt is made to use the area-password or domain password commands, the attempt fails. To configure clear-text authentication using the area-password or domain password commands, first use the no authentication mode command.

The type of authentication and the level to which it applies can be specified for a single ISIS interface, rather than per ISIS instance, using the isis authentication mode command.

Use the no parameter with this command to unset the authentication mode.

Command Syntax

authentication mode {md5|text} (level-1|level-2|)

no authentication mode {md5|text} (level-1|level-2|)

Parameters

md5

Keyed message digest

text

Text mode

level-1

Specify an authentication key-chain for level-1 PDUs.

level-2

Specify an authentication key-chain for level-2 PDUs.

Default

The authentication mode is set to MD5 for both levels if no level is specified.

Command Mode

Router mode

Applicability

This command was introduced before OcNOS version 1.3.

Examples

#configure terminal

(config)#router isis 1

(config-router)#authentication mode md5 level-1

(config-router)#no authentication mode md5 level-1

authentication send-only

Use this command to set the send-only option at the instance level.

Use this command before configuring the authentication mode and authentication key-chain, so that the implementation of authentication goes smoothly. That is, the routers will have more time for the keys to be configured on each router if authentication is inserted only on the packets being sent, not checked on packets being received. After all routers that must communicate are configured with this command, enable the authentication mode and key chain on each router. Then, specify the no authentication send-only command to disable the send-only feature.

If the level-1-2 keyword is configured, the send-only feature applies to both levels.

Use the no parameter with this command to unset the send-only option.

Command Syntax

authentication send-only (level-1-only|level-2-only|level-1-2)

no authentication send-only

Parameters

level-1-only

Set send-only option for level-1 only.

level-2-only

Set send-only option for level-2 only.

level-1-2

Set send-only option for level-1-2 only.

Default

By default, authentication send only is disabled

Command Syntax

Parameters

level-1

Level 1 only.

level-2

Level 2 only.

ipv4

IPv4 address family only.

primary-path

Use a path from the Equal-Cost Multipath Path (ECMP) set. An ECMP found during the primary shortest path first (SPF) repair might not be desirable in networks where traffic exceeds the capacity of any single link.

interface-disjoint

Link protecting: prefer a backup path that uses a different interface than the interface used to reach destination via the primary path.

node-protecting

Bypass the primary-path gateway router which might not protect the router that is the next hop in the primary path. This ensures complete traffic protection even if the primary next-hop router fails.

broadcast-interface-disjoint

Do not use the interface if connected to a broadcast network. Repair paths protect links when a repair path and a protected primary path use different next-hop interfaces. However, on broadcast interfaces, if the repair path is computed via the same interface as the primary path, but their next-hop gateways are different, the router is protected but the link might not be.

secondary-path

Prefer a non-ECMP backup path.

downstream-path

Prefer a backup path to the destination which satisfies the downstream condition where the path cost to reach the destination from the LFA next hop is less than the path cost to the destination from the self node via primary next hop:

Distance_opt(N, D) < Distance_opt(S, D)

This might result in lost traffic, but prevents looping.

index

Tie breaking index. A lower value has higher preference.

<1-255>

Tie breaking index value.

Defaults

primary-path	20
interface-disjoint	60
node-protecting	30
broadcast-interface-disjoint	70
secondary-path	255
downstream-path	90

Command Mode

Router mode

isis authentication key-chain

Use this command to set the key chain to be used for authentication on the interface-related packets.

Authentication mode must be set to md5 to configure the key chain. If no key chain is configured with the key-chain command, no key-chain authentication is performed. Only one authentication key-chain is applied to an ISIS interface at a time. That is, issuing a second isis authentication key-chain command overrides the first isis authentication key-chain command.

If neither the level-1 nor level-2 keyword is configured, the key chain applies to the level(s) on which the authentication mode is configured as md5. Authentication can be specified for an entire instance of ISIS, instead of at the interface level, by using the authentication key-chain command.

Use the no parameter with this command to unset the key chain used for authentication on the interface-related packets.

Command Syntax

isis authentication key-chain WORD (level-1|level-2|)

no isis authentication key-chain (level-1|level-2|)

isis csnp-interval

Use this command to set CSNP (Complete sequence number PDU) interval in seconds.

Configuring this command changes the interval between two consecutive CSNP transmission. By default, CSNP is sent every 10 seconds only by LAN DIS. This parameter is only valid on broadcast interface, since periodic CSNP is only sent on broadcast interface, while CSNP on Point-to-Point interface is sent only when adjacency is initiated.

Use the no parameter with this command to reset CSNP interval to the default value.

Command Syntax

isis csnp-interval <1-65535> (level-1|level-2|)

no isis csnp-interval (level-1|level-2|)

Parameters

<1-65535>

Specify the CSNP interval in seconds.

level-1

isis hello-interval

Use this command to set the Hello interval in seconds. The Hello-interval is set with the hello-multiplier (see isis hello-multiplier command).

Configuring this command changes the time interval between two consecutive Hello transmissions. If a device receives its own LSP with a maximum sequence number, then it suspends ISIS for the hold interval. DIS sends Hello transmissions at three times the rate than non-DIS. If ISIS is elected as DIS on this interface, ISIS sends Hello every 3.3 seconds.

If minimal keyword is specified, Holding timer in Hello PDU is set to 1 second and Hello interval is calculated by dividing by the hello-multiplier. For example, if the hello-multiplier is configured as 4 and hello-interval minimal is the command used, an Hello PDU is sent every 250 milliseconds.

Use the no parameter to set the Hello interval to the default.

Command Syntax

isis hello-interval <1-65535> (level-1|level-2|)

isis hello-interval minimal (level-1-only|level-2-only|level-1-2)

net

Use this command to add a Network Entity Title (NET) for the instance.

On a router running ISIS, a NET can be 8 to 20 bytes in length. The last byte is always the n-selector, and must be zero. The n-selector indicates no transport entity, and means that the packet is for the routing software of the system. The six bytes directly preceding the n-selector are the system ID. The system ID length is a fixed size and cannot be changed. The system ID must be unique throughout each area (Level 1) and throughout the backbone (Level 2).

The bytes preceding the system ID are the area ID, which can be from 1 - 13 bytes in length.

Use the no parameter to clear the overload-bit from self-LSPs.

Command Syntax

set-overload-bit ({suppress (external|interlevel|external interlevel|interlevel external)|on-startup (<5-86400>|wait-for-bgp)}|)

no set-overload-bit

Parameters

suppress	Suppresses the redistribution of the specified types of reachability data during overload state.
external	Suppresses the redistribution of external reachability, preventing the advertisement of IP prefixes learned from other protocols.
interlevel	Suppresses the redistribution of interlevel reachability.
external interlevel or interlevel external	Suppresses the redistribution of both external and interlevel reachability.
on-startup	Sets the overload bit only at startup and clears the bit after the specified interval has elapsed.
<5-86400>	Specifies the time in seconds to advertise oneself as overloaded after a reboot.
wait-for-bgp	Sets the overload bit at startup, then clears the bit after BGP signals it has finished converging, or clears it after 10 minutes if BGP does not signal convergence. If BGP is not running, clears the overload bit immediately.

Default

The overload-bit is not set by default.

Command Mode

Router mode

Applicability

This command was introduced in OcNOS version 6.4.2.

Example

This example configures the router to set the overload bit at startup, does not allow the unset of the overload bit until BGP converges, suppresses redistribution between levels, and suppresses redistribution from external routing protocols while the overload bit is set.
