ISIS Multi-Topolgy Core

Hi All,

          With four routers in the core running ISIS Multi-topology for (IPv4 and IPv6) on all interfaces and the loopbacks, i can see all the necessary routes for IPv4 but not IPv6.

Despite enabling address-family for IPv6 and multi-protocol under the ISIS process and "ip router isis" under all the interfaces as needed, i still cannot see any IPv6 route when "show ipv6 route isis" is executed.

Can someone please help me out with what might be the problem?.

The topology can be seen on "CCIE-SP-v3.0-Sample-Lab-Part-1-7.pdf" submitted byVincent somewhere last year, " I am reffering to Routers 2,7,8 and 9 in particular" moreso, i am only running the LAB in pure IOS and not XR.

Thanking all in advance,

O.A

Hello Olugbenga,

have you enabled metric-style wide at isis process level?

see

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/ios-xml/ios/iproute_isis/configuration/15-2s/ip6-route-mult-isis.html#GUID-64D2D397-5DEF-4098-B8D0-4CBEE0B4E23A

wide metric is required for the IPv6 data structures

Hope to help

Giuseppe

Hi Guiseppe,

                   Many thanks for your response as usual. I actually have the "metric-style wide" enabled under the router process as you can see the node's outputs below. Although i am only showing the output of one node but the same can be found on the remaining nodes.

Lastly,  i have put "ip router isis" under each interface countless of times, yet when i do "sh run int XX" the result never showed any "ip router isis" under IPv6 address but can be seen under v4, is the  normal behaviour?. Please see below.

Looking forward to your swift response as usual,

Hi O.A.,

you just need to add 'ipv6 router isis' under an interface in order to run ISISv6 on it.

This helps.

Ivan,

       Thanks for your contribution but if you have taken your time to read my last post, you will see that i mentioned "

Lastly,  i have put "ip router isis" under each interface countless of  times, yet when i do "sh run int XX" the result never showed any "ip  router isis" under IPv6 address but can be seen under v4, is this the normal  behaviour?

So this can't be the problem. Further help is much awaited from anyone.

Thanks,

O.A

O.V.,

I sure did read the whole thread and spotted the issue. Anyway, please take your time to check the config below:

interface Ethernet1/1

ip address 192.168.34.4 255.255.255.0

ip router isis ch

ipv6 address 2001::1/64

ipv6 router isis ch

Ivan,

       Thanks for your willingness to assist. Unfortunately, i cannot understanding why you wants me to add "ch" to the "ip router isis" under the interfaces because the router process does not contain any NAME/TAG. Below is my original configs.

I trust someone out there will be able to assist me further,

Huh!!! where did you get O.V from?,......I am O.A

Thanks,
