Re: RE: isis metric-style transition

Greetings Gladston,

Interesting - Are you also running IPv4?

Here's why I ask:

Rack1R1(config)#router isis
Rack1R1(config-router)#address-family ipv6
Rack1R1(config-router-af)#multi-topology
%Must enable wide metrics first

(on a 3620 @ 12.2(15)T14)

I interpret the above as meaning I cannot have both
IPv4 and IPv6 without wide (or transition) metrics.

Also, you're configuring this locally - I think what I
was looking at was between devices

Please let me know what you find.
Thanx!

Hi,

From what I remember on the ISIS examples I saw, it is not necessary to use
wide metric.

For example:

router(config)# router isis cisco
router(config-router)# net 49.aaaa.bbbb.cccc.dddd.0000.2222.2222.2222.00
router(config-router)# exit
router(config)# interface ethernet 0
router(config-if)# ipv6 address 2000:1:2::1/64
router(config-if)# ipv6 router isis cisco
router(config-if)# interface serial 0
router(config-if)# ipv6 address 2000:1:1::1/64
router(config-if)# ipv6 router isis cisco

Would be enough to get ipv6 routing with ISIS.

I will lab it soon, just to double check it.

Did you read this requirement on any doc?
