Usage Information
Every graceful restart enabled router’s HELLO PDUs includes a restart TLV. This restart enables (re)starting
as well as the existing ISIS peers to detect the GR capability of the routers on the connected network. A ag
in the Restart TLV contains restart request (RR), restart acknowledge (RA) and suppress adjacency
advertisement (SA) bit ags.
The ISIS graceful restart-enabled router can co-exist in mixed topologies where some routers are graceful
restart-enabled and others are not. For neighbors that are not graceful restart-enabled, the restarting router
brings up the adjacency per the usual methods.
