Please note, if the IS-IS sys-name is not provisioned, by default, the global system name
is used as the IS-IS sys-name. If you do wish to set the IS-IS sys-name, it can be set to a
value different than global system name.
The primary and secondary VLAN provisioning must be the same on all SPB bridges,
i.e. if VLAN 4051 is provisioned as the primary B-VLAN and VLAN 4052 is provisioned
as the secondary B-VLAN, then this must be repeated on all SPB bridges.
On the VSP 7000, ERS 4800, and ERS 5900, the B-VLANs must be configured first prior
to enabling SPB and ISIS.
By default, the SPB EtherType is set to 0x8100 on all Extreme switches when SPB is
enabled. Please note this value is set on purpose to allow SPB to be transported across
non-SPB networks, i.e. transparent VLAN service or a traditional Ethernet network. For
SPB interoperability between different vendors, this value will have to be changed to the
STP standard EtherType value of 0x88a8 unless this vendor also supports a SPB
EtherType value of 0x8100.
The default switch behavior regarding System-Id is to use a MAC address within the MAC
address range reserved for the switch. This ensures that there will be no de- stabilizing
System-Id conflicts in the network. Extreme recommends the use of default
System-Id values for this reason. To allow greater flexibility to customers, the use of
