Enabling source address check for hello packets on a PPP
interface

An IS-IS PPP interface can have a peer on a different network. Perform this task to configure an IS-IS PPP
interface to establish neighbor relationship only with a peer on the same network.
To enable source address check for hello packets on a PPP interface:

Step Command

Remarks

1.

Enter system view.

system-view

N/A

2.

Enter interface view.

interface interface-type interface-number N/A

3.

Enable source address
check for hello packets

on a PPP interface.

isis peer-ip-check

By default, an IS-IS PPP interface
can have a peer on a different

network.
The command applies only to PPP

interfaces.

Disabling an interface from sending/receiving IS-IS packets

After being disabled from sending and receiving hello packets, an interface cannot form any neighbor

relationship, but can advertise directly connected networks in LSPs through other interfaces. This can save

bandwidth and CPU resources, and ensures that other routers know networks directly connected to the
interface.
To disable an interface from sending and receiving IS-IS packets:

Disable the interface from
sending and receiving IS-IS

packets.

isis silent

By default, the interface can send
and receive IS-IS packets.

Enabling an interface to send small hello packets

IS-IS messages cannot be fragmented at the IP layer because they are directly encapsulated in frames.

Any two IS-IS neighboring routers must negotiate a common MTU. To avoid sending big hellos to save

bandwidth, enable the interface to send small hello packets without CLVs.
