IS-IS

IS-IS Overview
Intermediate System to Intermediate System
Router to Router communication
Link-State IGP similar to OSPF

Used in core of SP networks


Simple flat network design
Highly scalable
Supports both IPv4 and IPv6 routing

Not an IP protocol - Part of the CLNS stack


Integrated IS-IS: IP extensions to IS-IS

Enabling IS-IS in IOS


Enable the process globally
router isis [process-id]
Process-id locally significant

Define the NET address


net

[nsap]

Enable the interface process


ip router isis [process-id]

Enabling IS-IS in IOS XR


Enable the process globally
router isis [process-id]
Process-id locally significant

Define the NET address


net [nsap]

Enable interfaces under IS-IS process


interface GigabitEthernet0/1/0/0
address-family ipv4 unicast

IS-IS NET Addressing


Network Entity Title
Essentially CLNS Router-ID

Uses ISO NSAP Addressing Format


Maximum 20 bytes
Minimum 8 bytes

NET format
AA.AAAA.AAAA.AAAA.AAAA.AAAA.AAAA.SSSS.SSSS.SSSS.NN

Area not link-state area like OSPF


System-ID - Router-ID inside the area
N-Selector - always zero

IS-IS Adjacency Levels


IS-IS uses two levels of adjacency
Level 2 (L2)
Level 1 (L1)

Process & interfaces default to Level-1-2


Forms both L1 and L2
Separate LSP databases
Double the overhead

IS-IS Level 2
Inter or intra area adjacency
Like area 0 in OSPF
Must be contiguous
Cisco IOS does not support IS-IS virtual links

Copyright www.INE.com

IS-IS Level 1
Intra area adjacency only
Like a not so totally stubby area in OSPF
Intra area routes
Default route out
Redistribution allowed

Level 1 / Level 2 Routing


Level 1 / Level 2 (L1/L2) Router
Like ABR in OSPF
Used as exit point from L1 to L2

Injects default route into level-1


Sets the attached bit

Copyright www.INE.com

Forming IS-IS Adjacency


Ensure transport first
CLNS resolution on multipoint NBMA

Level of adjacency must match


Area must match if L1 adjacency

Network type
Broadcast
Point-to-Point

Level Manipulation
Global under the process
is-type
Affects all interfaces

Under the interface


isis circuit-type
Affects only that interface

Copyright www.INE.com

IS-IS Network Type


Only two network types
Broadcast
Default on multipoint interfaces
Uses DIS instead of DR / BDR

Point-to-point
Default on point-to-point interfaces

isis network point-to-point
Layer 2 design considerations

DIS Election
Designated Intermediate System
Like OSPF DR / BDR
No backup DIS

Election is dynamic, preemption can occur


Separate election for L1 and L2
Occurs by
Highest priority
isis priority

Highest SNPA (MAC) address

IS-IS Path Selection


All links default to cost of 10
Can be manually modified
Neighbors must agree on metric style
Narrow
Default

Wide
Needed for MPLS TE

Transition

Level 1 paths preferred over Level 2 paths


Like OSPF Intra-Area over Inter-Area

IS-IS Route Leaking


Level 2 domain knows all prefixes
Level 1 domain only knows L1 prefixes
Route leaking can be used to selectively
Pass L2 routes into L1
Deny L1 routes from passing into L2

In IOS configured as
redistribute isis level-2 into level-1
distribute-list [acl]

In IOS XR configured as
propagate level 2 into level 1 route-policy
[policy]

Multi Topology IS-IS


IS-IS supports routing for both IPv4 and IPv6
IPv6 routing can be either
Single topology
Shares path calculation with IPv4
Requires 1:1 correlation of IPv4 and IPv6 interfaces

Multi topology
Independent path calculation from IPv4
IPv4 & IPv6 configuration completely independent
