Hunt,
I was seeing all the messages sent by u and fro what u write it looks weird. From what i know ( will have to test it agian) when the router is L1/L2 type and gets routes from L1 it shows up as L1 (within area) else shows the external routes as L1/L2 depedning on what was given as "type" while redistributing. The routes frm other routers which are L1/L2 would show up as L1/L2 itself.
Anyway can u share ur scenario with ur configs so that we can try the same thing to see if IOS version or anything else makes it different ?

I left all of my routers a L1/L2 (default)... so how does it decides whether
it gets a L1 or L2 route?
Thanks in advance,

Hunt,
How have ur routers been setup ? i mean L1/L2 or L1 etc ? As u have written
a router within a area (if defined as L1 type under routers isis) will
receive only L1 routes. A L1/L2 router will receive both L1/L2 routes and
show it up in its IP table.
In ur config the routers RTC and RTA should be L1/L2 type so that they
exhange the L1/L2 routes between each other.Others would be L1 type in their
respective areas and they would see only L1 routes and a default route to L2
if i remember right.
When redistributing the metric-type sets the type as L1 or L2 (as u might
know) and this setting will decide if the routes show up on ur L1 routers or
not as L1/L2 would see it all.
Let us know. Hope that helps.

I did a lab scenario on ISIS. I got all the routes correctly on all of my
routers.
However, some of my routes have got different L1 / L2 tags than as the model
answer.
How do we determine whether a particular ISIS route will be L1 or L2?
- if the ISIS network is within the same ISIS area, then it is L1
- if it is from a different ISIS area, it is L2
So in the topology...
RTC---RTD (top two is in ISIS Area 1)
|
RTA---RTB (bottom four is in ISIS Area 2)
| \
RTE RTF
Or does it depends on ISIS Router types / redistribution commands...
Any help / ideas would be greatly appreciated.
