Verifying IS-IS on a Services Router

To verify IS-IS, perform these tasks:

Purpose

Verify the status of IS-IS-enabled interfaces.

Action

From the CLI, enter the show isis interface brief command.

IS-IS interface database:
Interface  L CirID Level 1	DR	Level 2 DR		
lo0.0      3  0x1  router1		router.01			
ge-0/0/1.0 2  0x9  Disabled		router.03
ge-1/0/0.0 2	0x7  Disabled		router.05

What it Means

Verify that the output shows the intended configuration of the interfaces on which IS-IS is enabled.

For more information about the show isis interface brief command, see the JUNOS Routing Protocols and Policies Command Reference.

Purpose

Verify the details of IS-IS-enabled interfaces.

Action

From the CLI, enter the show isis interface detail command.

What it Means

Check the following output fields and verify that the output shows the intended configuration of IS-IS-enabled interfaces:

• Interface—Interface configured for IS-IS
• State—Internal implementation information
• Circuit id—Circuit identifier
• Circuit type—Configured level of IS-IS:
  • 1—Level 1 only
  • 2—Level 2 only
  • 3—Level 1 and Level 2
• LSP interval—Time between IS-IS information messages
• Sysid—System identifier
• L or Level—Type of adjacency:
  • 1—Level 1 only
  • 2—Level 2 only
  • 3—Level 1 and Level 2
• Adjacencies—Adjacencies established on the interface
• Priority—Priority value established on the interface
• Metric—Metric value for the interface
• Hello(s)—Intervals between hello PDUs
• Hold(s)—Hold time on the interface

For more information about the show isis interface detail command, see the JUNOS Routing Protocols and Policies Command Reference.

Purpose

Display brief information about IS-IS neighbors.

Action

From the CLI, enter the show isis adjacency brief command.

IS-IS adjacency database:
		 Interface		System				L  State				Hold (secs) SNPA
		 ge-0/0/0.0		1921.6800.5067		2  Up								13
		 ge-0/0/1.0		1921.6800.5067		2	Up								25
		 ge-0/0/2.0		1921.6800.5067		2  Up								19

What it Means

Verify adjacent routers in the IS-IS database.

For more information about the show isis adjacency brief command, see the JUNOS Routing Protocols and Policies Command Reference.

Purpose

Display extensive information about IS-IS neighbors.

Action

From the CLI, enter the show isis adjacency extensive command.

What it Means

Check the following fields and verify adjacency information about IS-IS neighbors:

• Interface—Interface through which the neighbor is reachable
• L or Level—Configured level of IS-IS:
  • 1—Level 1 only
  • 2—Level 2 only
  • 3—Level 1 and Level 2

  An exclamation point before the level number indicates that the adjacency is missing an IP address.

• State—Status of the adjacency: Up, Down, New, One-way, Initializing, or Rejected
• Event—Message that identifies the cause of a state
• Down reason—Reason the adjacency is down
• Restart capable—Denotes a neighbor configured for graceful restart
• Transition log—List of transitions including When, State, and Reason
