Service Manual
• MT Reachable IPv6 Prexes TLV — appears for each IPv6 an IS announces for a given MT ID. Its structure is aligned with the
extended IS Reachability TLV Type 236 and add an MT ID.
By default, Dell Networking OS supports dynamic host name exchange to assist with troubleshooting and conguration. By assigning
a name to an IS-IS NET address, you can track IS-IS information on that address easier. Dell Networking OS does not support ISO
CLNS routing; however, the ISO NET format is supported for addressing.
To support IPv6, the Dell Networking implementation of IS-IS performs the following tasks:
• Advertises IPv6 information in the PDUs.
• Processes IPv6 information received in the PDUs.
• Computes routes to IPv6 destinations.
• Downloads IPv6 routes to the RTM for installing in the FIB.
• Accepts external IPv6 information and advertises this information in the PDUs.
The following table lists the default IS-IS values.
Table 21. IS-IS Default Values

Conguration Information
To use IS-IS, you must congure and enable IS-IS in two or three modes: CONFIGURATION ROUTER ISIS, CONFIGURATION
INTERFACE, and ( when conguring for IPv6) ADDRESS-FAMILY mode. Commands in ROUTER ISIS mode congure IS-IS globally,
while commands executed in INTERFACE mode enable and congure IS-IS features on that interface only. Commands in the
ADDRESS-FAMILY mode are specic to IPv6.
NOTE: When using the IS-IS routing protocol to exchange IPv6 routing information and to determine destination
reachability, you can route IPv6 along with IPv4 while using a single intra-domain routing protocol. The conguration
commands allow you to enable and disable IPv6 routing and to congure or remove IPv6 prexes on links.
Except where identied, the commands described in this chapter apply to both IPv4 and IPv6 versions of IS-IS.
