ISIS
****

:abbr:`ISIS (Intermediate System to Intermediate System)` is a routing protocol
which is described in :t:`ISO10589`, :rfc:`1195`, :rfc:`5308`. ISIS is an
:abbr:`IGP (Interior Gateway Protocol)`. Compared with :abbr:`RIP`,
:abbr:`ISIS` can provide scalable network support and faster convergence times
like :abbr:`OSPF`. ISIS is widely used in large networks such as :abbr:`ISP
(Internet Service Provider)` and carrier backbone networks.

.. _configuring-isisd:

Configuring isisd
=================

There are no *isisd* specific options. Common options can be specified
(:ref:`common-invocation-options`) to *isisd*. *isisd* needs to acquire
interface information from *zebra* in order to function. Therefore *zebra* must
be running before invoking *isisd*. Also, if *zebra* is restarted then *isisd*
must be too.

Like other daemons, *isisd* configuration is done in :abbr:`ISIS` specific
configuration file :file:`isisd.conf`.

.. _isis-router:

ISIS router
===========

To start the ISIS process you have to specify the ISIS router. As of this
writing, *isisd* does not support multiple ISIS processes.

.. index:: [no] router isis WORD
.. clicmd:: [no] router isis WORD

   Enable or disable the ISIS process by specifying the ISIS domain with
   'WORD'.  *isisd* does not yet support multiple ISIS processes but you must
   specify the name of ISIS process. The ISIS process name 'WORD' is then used
   for interface (see command :clicmd:`ip router isis WORD`).

.. clicmd:: net XX.XXXX. ... .XXX.XX

ISIS Configuration Examples
===========================

A simple example, with MD5 authentication enabled:

.. code-block:: frr

   !
   interface eth0
    ip router isis FOO
    isis network point-to-point
    isis circuit-type level-2-only
   !
   router isis FOO
   net 47.0023.0000.0000.0000.0000.0000.0000.1900.0004.00
    metric-style wide
    is-type level-2-only


A Traffic Engineering configuration, with Inter-ASv2 support.

First, the :file:`zebra.conf` part:

.. code-block:: frr

   hostname HOSTNAME
   password PASSWORD
   log file /var/log/zebra.log
   !
   interface eth0
    ip address 10.2.2.2/24
    link-params
     max-bw 1.25e+07
     max-rsv-bw 1.25e+06
     unrsv-bw 0 1.25e+06
     unrsv-bw 1 1.25e+06
     unrsv-bw 2 1.25e+06
     unrsv-bw 3 1.25e+06
     unrsv-bw 4 1.25e+06
     unrsv-bw 5 1.25e+06
     unrsv-bw 6 1.25e+06
     unrsv-bw 7 1.25e+06
     admin-grp 0xab
   !
   interface eth1
    ip address 10.1.1.1/24
    link-params
     enable
     metric 100
     max-bw 1.25e+07
     max-rsv-bw 1.25e+06
     unrsv-bw 0 1.25e+06
     unrsv-bw 1 1.25e+06
     unrsv-bw 2 1.25e+06
     unrsv-bw 3 1.25e+06
     unrsv-bw 4 1.25e+06
     unrsv-bw 5 1.25e+06
     unrsv-bw 6 1.25e+06
     unrsv-bw 7 1.25e+06
     neighbor 10.1.1.2 as 65000


Then the :file:`isisd.conf` itself:

.. code-block:: frr

   hostname HOSTNAME
   password PASSWORD
   log file /var/log/isisd.log
   !
   !
   interface eth0
    ip router isis FOO
   !
   interface eth1
    ip router isis FOO
   !
   !
   router isis FOO
    isis net 47.0023.0000.0000.0000.0000.0000.0000.1900.0004.00
     mpls-te on
     mpls-te router-address 10.1.1.1
