sending CSNP packets on the
DIS of a broadcast network.

Optional.
10 seconds by default.
The interval between hello packets sent by the DIS is 1/3 the hello interval set with the isis timer hello
command.
Specifying the IS-IS hello multiplier
If a neighbor receives no hello packets from the router within the advertised hold time, it considers the
router down and recalculates the routes. The hold time is the hello multiplier multiplied by the hello
interval.
On a broadcast link, Level-1 and Level-2 hello packets are advertised separately. You must set a hello
multiplier for each level.
On a P2P link, Level-1 and Level-2 hello packets are advertised in P2P hello packets. You do not need to
specify Level-1 or Level-2.

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.
To specify a DIS priority for an interface:
