When you say "backbone" are you actually meaning two ISIS processes?
There is no respective area 0 backbone in ISIS, however, you can run two
separate ISIS processes.

Router isis 1 (word ISO routing area tag)
Net 49.0001.0001.0001.00

Router isis 2
Net 8c.0002.0002.0002.00

Subject: ISIS dual backbones?

I have run accross a scenario where it seems to be calling for 2 L2 ISIS
backbones. IS this possible? How would one of the backbones know how
to route to a area that was only attached to the second backbone? If
this was in OSPF I would simply configure a virtual link between the 2
backbones.
