therefore, no limitation is imposed on the link state information of the extended LSP fragments

advertised by the virtual systems.

The operation mode of LSP fragment extension is configured based on area and routing level.
Mode-1 allows the routers supporting and not supporting LSP fragment extension to interoperate

with each other, but it restricts the link state information in the extended fragments. Mode-2 does

not restrict the link state information in the extended fragments, and is recommended for an area

where all the routers are at the same routing level and support LSP fragment extension.

Dynamic host name mapping mechanism

The dynamic host name mapping mechanism provides the mappings between the host names and the

system IDs for the IS-IS routers. The dynamic host name information is announced in the dynamic host

name CLV of an LSP.
This mechanism also provides the mapping between a host name and the DIS of a broadcast network,
which is announced in the dynamic host name TLV of a pseudonode LSP.
A host name is easier to remember than a system ID. After enabling this feature on the router, you can see

the host names instead of system IDs using the display command.

BFD

Bidirectional forwarding detection (BFD) provides a single mechanism to quickly detect and monitor the
connectivity of links between IS-IS neighbors, reducing network convergence time. For more information

about BFD, see High Availability Configuration Guide.
