Changing the IS-Type
To change the IS-type, use the following commands.
You can configure the system to act as a Level 1 router, a Level 1-2 router, or a Level 2 router.
To change the IS-type for the router, use the following commands.
• Configure IS-IS operating level for a router.
ROUTER ISIS mode
is-type {level-1 | level-1-2 | level-2-only}
Default is level-1-2.
• Change the IS-type for the IS-IS process.
ROUTER ISIS mode
is-type {level-1 | level-1-2 | level-2}
To view which IS-type is configured, use the show isis protocol command in EXEC Privilege mode. The show
config command in ROUTER ISIS mode displays only non-default information, so if you do not change the IS-type, the
default value (level-1-2) is not displayed.
The default is Level 1-2 router. When the IS-type is Level 1-2, the software maintains two Link State databases, one for
each level. To view the Link State databases, use the show isis database command.

• Disable a specific interface from sending or receiving IS-IS routing information.
ROUTER ISIS mode
passive-interface interface
– For a 1-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword GigabitEthernet then the slot/port information.
– For the Loopback interface on the RPM, enter the keyword loopback then a number from 0 to 16383.
– For a port channel, enter the keywords port-channel then a number.
– For a SONET interface, enter the keyword sonet then the slot/port information.
– For a 10-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword TenGigabitEthernet then the slot/ port
information.
