Good point. Damn it, there I go with reality again! I hate when I do
that.
Other devices require it, I just get in the habit. :)

Scott,
Per the standard spec for an ISO NSAP address yes, but per Cisco's
implementation no. Anything to the left of the first 7 bytes (the system-id
and the n-selector) is technically the area address. If the AFI were
required then the command line would not let you do the
following:
Rack5R1(config)#router isis
Rack5R1(config-router)#net 12.0000.0000.0001.00 Rack5R1(config-router)#net
0c.0000.0000.0001.00
Mike the reason I was asking the question was because if the task in
the lab is not telling you to prefix the area with 49.... why would you do
it? Area 49.0012 is not the same as area 12.
Whether the area is expressed in decimal or hex is another issue.
Typically hex numbers are express as 0x12, etc., or with a NET area it could
be 12.3456. Your best bet is probably to ask the proctor for clarification
though.
