Configuring a DIS priority for an interface
On a broadcast network, ISIS must elect a router as the DIS at a routing level. You can specify a DIS
priority at a level for an interface. The greater the interface's priority, the more likely it becomes the DIS.
If multiple routers in the broadcast network have the same highest DIS priority, the router with the highest
MAC address becomes the DIS.

Disabling an interface from sending/receiving IS-IS packets
After being disabled from sending and receiving hello packets, an interface cannot form any neighbor
relationship, but can advertise directly connected networks in LSPs through other interfaces. This can save
bandwidth and CPU resources, and ensures other routers know networks directly connected to the
interface.

By default, the interface can send
and receive IS-IS packets.
Disabling hello source address check for a PPP interface
On a P2P link, IS-IS verifies the source IP address of the incoming hello packets is in the same network
segment as the IP address of the receiving interface. If not, it discards the hello packets, and no neighbor
relationship can be established with the peer router.
