From cco

A maximum of three NETs per router are allowed. In rare circumstances, it is
possible to configure two or three NETs. In such a case, the area this
router is in will have three area addresses. There will still be only one
area, but it will have an additional maximum of three area addresses.

Configuring multiple NETs can be temporarily useful in the case of network
reconfiguration where multiple areas are merged, or where one area is split
into additional areas. Multiple area addresses enable you to renumber an
area individually as needed.

If you are configuring multiarea IS-IS, the area ID must be unique, but the
system ID portion of the NET must be the same for all IS-IS routing process
instances.

Examples

The following example configures a router with system ID 0000.0c11.1111.00
and area ID 47.0004.004d.0001:

router isis CHESNUT
 net 47.0004.004d.0001.0001.0c11.1111.00
The following example shows three IS-IS routing processes with three areas
configured. Each area has a unique identifier, but the system ID is the same
for all areas.

clns routing

interface Tunnel529
ip address 10.0.0.5 255.255.255.0
