You must statically assign the multiple area addresses on the router.
You can assign up to three area addresses on the AI2524. The number
of areas allowed in a doma inis unlimited.
All the addresses must have the same system ID. For exampl e, you ca n
assign one address (area1 plus system ID), and two additional ad-
dresses in different areas (area2 plus system ID and area3 plus system
ID) where the system ID is the same.
A router can dynamically learn about any adjacent router. As part o
this process, the routers inform each other o f their a re a addresses. If
two routers share at least one area address, the set of ar ea addresses of
the two routers are merged. The merged set cannot contain m ore t han
three addresses. If there are more than th r ee , the thr ee a ddresses with
the lowest numerical values are kept, and all others are dropped.
Beginning in global configuration mode, configure multiple area ad
dresses in IS-IS areas:
1. Enable IS-IS routing and enter rou ter configuration mode.

2. Configure NETs for the routing proc ess. The router can have up to
three NETs. Enter each command s eparately.

These are examples of configuring NETs for both ISO IGRP and
IS-IS.
