Configuring IS-IS
In order to enable IS-IS for IP on a Cisco router and have it exchang e rout ing infor ma tion wit h othe r
IS-IS enabled routers, you must perform these two tasks:
• Enable the IS-IS process and assign area
• Enable IS-IS for IP routing on an interface
You can configure the router to act as a Level 1 (intra-area) router, as Level 1-2 (both a Level 1 router
and a Level 2 router), or as Level 2 (an inter-area router only).
The IS-IS commands helps you to configure the IS-IS on a Cisco router. These commands can be
launched from the logical inventory. Before executing any commands, you can preview them and view
the results. If desired, you can also schedule the commands.
The table below lists the IS-IS configuration commands. To run th e ISIS c ommands, the sof twa re on the
network element must support ISIS technology. For details on the software versions Prime N etwork
supports for the ISIS supported network elements, see the Cisco Prime Network 4.0 Supported Cisco
VNEs.
Additional commands may be available for your devices. New commands are often provided in Prime
Network Device Packages, which can be downloaded from the Prime Network softw are download site.
For more information on how to download and install DPs and enable new commands, se e the
information on “Adding Additional Device (VNE) support” in the Cisco Prime Network 4.0
Administrator Guide.
Note You might be prompted to enter your device access credentials while executing a command. Once you
have entered them, these credentials will be used for every subsequent execution of a command in the
same GUI client session. If you want to change the creden tial s, clic k E dit Credentials. The Edit
Credentials button will not be available for SNMP commands or if the command is scheduled for a later
time.
