The priority command is present in the R4 configs. At least in the copy I
have (5.0 stuff). So, as noted in the e-mail I sent you earlier, this
should have worked as it needed to.

Subject: ISIS Network Types - I t does Work!!
Thanks to all of you who came to my rescue! ..... naturally I feel more than
a little embarassed (as a mere mortal) for doubting IPExpert!
The crux of the matter was that in a fully meshed NBMA net, things will work
no matter which router becomes the DIS. However, in a partial mesh you have
to make sure that the hub router is the DIS. In my lab one of the spokes had
been elected as the DIS so that the other spoke couldn't form an adjacency
with the hub. Use of isis priority 0 on the two spokes fixed everything.
I noted from CCO that given the same ISIS metric and priority, the DIS is
elected based on mac address. In which case the published IPE solution could
only have worked by chance since the priority command was not present in the
configs?
Thx again,
Chris.
