Configuring IS-IS Route Summarization

This task is to configure a summary route, so routes falling into the network range of the summary

route are summarized into one route for advertisement. Doing so can reduce the size of routing tables,

as well as the scale of LSP and LSDB. Both IS-IS routes and redistributed routes can be summarized.

Follow these steps to configure route summarization:

To do…

Use the command...

Remarks

Enter system view

Enter IS-IS view

isis [ process-id ] [ vpn-instance

vpn-instance-name ]

Configure IS-IS route

summarization

summary ip-address { mask | mask-length }

[ avoid-feedback | generate_null0_route | tag

tag | [ level-1 | level-1-2 | level-2 ] ] *

Required

No route summarization is

configured by default.

z

The cost of the summary route is the lowest one among the costs of summarized routes.

z

The router summarizes only the routes in the locally generated LSPs.

Advertising a Default Route

A router running IS-IS cannot redistribute any default route and thus cannot advertise a default route to

other neighbors. You can use the following commands to advertise a default route of 0.0.0.0/0 to the

same level neighbors.

Follow these steps to advertise a default route:

To do…

Use the command…

Remarks

Advertise a default route

default-route-advertise [ route-policy

route-policy-name | [ level-1 | level-1-2 |

level-2 ] ] *

Required

The function is disabled by default.

The default route is only advertised to routers at the same level. You can use a routing policy to

generate the default route only when a local routing entry is matched by the policy.
