Can't ISIS and OSPF v4 and v6 coexist?.

Hi All,

          I have a core network with four routers (R2,R7,R8 and R9). These routers must all run ISIS ipv4 and ipv6 on all their connected interfaces including the loopkbacks. This i achived without any hassle, (see the config and the routing table below).

The same four routers must also run OSPF v2 and v3, unfortunately once the OSPF is deployed, i can no longer see the ISIS routes, both for v4 and v6. Any idea what i might be doing wrong?. Please do study my configs well before response, as address-family ipv6 and multi-topology are in the right places. The configs seen here are the same on teh remaining router.

Hi O.A,

nice to see you managed to get ISIS v6 running, the reason for the current behavior is that OSPF has better AD, so once two protocols announce the same route/prefix, the one with better AD secures its place in the RIB.

Hi Ivan,

           Your answer was super!!!!!! (i was laughing when i saw your reply), unknown to me i was struggling with configs not knowing it was only the AD issue. Now i have partly resolved the problem by increasing the OSPF Distance to 200 but what will be the solution if i want the two routing protocols in my RIB?. CIsco got it done without increasing any cost....."CCIE SP Sample LAB" by Vincent Zhou" SP PM.

I am sure you can grab a copy of his note to see that he never increased any cost, yet got the job done.....

Looking forward to your swift response as usual

O.A

Hi O.A.,

i checked the docs available at https://learningnetwork.cisco.com/people/zhoujl?view=overview

there are two independent examples for OSPF and ISIS and no more than that.

You can have both(if not all) IGPs at the same time in the RIB, the only thing that needs to be accounted is that they will appear for different prefixes only, as soon as there is a tie between IGPs for the same prefix, the one with better AD will win and appear in the RIB. All other will kick in in case primary IGP will fail, but this is unlikely since the physical topology is the same and hence all other IGP will see that prefix as withdrawn.
