Look on the brakedown from the IEWB workbook (this appears some times in the
workbook so it isn't just a mistake)

Task: configure the net address as 13456

brakedown,explanation:

isis network entity title (NET address are in the ISO NSAP format, and are
denoted in hexadecimal format. The above requirement states that R1,R3,R4,R5
and R6 be configured in IS-IS area 13456. In hexadecimal, this number
converts to 3490. However, as the IS-IS NET address must start and end to
one octet, and additional 00 has been added to the beginning of the address.

Could anybody comment???
