N/A

3. (Optional.) Disable LFA calculation on the interface.

isis fast-reroute lfa-backup exclude

By default, the interface participates in LFA calculation, and can be elected as a backup interface.

4. Return to system view.

5. Enter IS-IS IPv4 unicast address family view.

  • isis [ process-id ] [ vpn-instance vpn-instance-name ]

  • cost-style { wide | wide-compatible }

  • address-family ipv4 [ unicast ]

  • N/A

    6. Enable IS-IS FRR to calculate a backup next hop through LFA calculation.

    fast-reroute lfa

    By default, IS-IS FRR is disabled.

    Configuring IS-IS FRR using a routing policy

    You can use the apply fast-reroute backup-interface command to specify a backup next hop in a routing policy for routes matching specific criteria. You can also perform this task to reference the routing policy for IS-IS FRR. For more information about the apply fast-reroute backup-interface command and routing policy configurations, see "Configuring routing policies."

    5. Enter IS-IS IPv4 unicast address family view.

  • isis [ process-id ] [ vpn-instance vpn-instance-name ]

  • cost-style { wide | wide-compatible }

  • address-family ipv4 [ unicast ]

  • N/A

    6. Enable IS-IS FRR using a routing policy.

    fast-reroute route-policy route-policy-name

    By default, this feature is not enabled.

    Enabling BFD for IS-IS FRR

    By default, IS-IS FRR does not use BFD to detect primary link failures. To speed up IS-IS convergence, enable BFD for IS-IS FRR to detect primary link failures.

    To enable BFD control packet mode for IS-IS FRR:

    Step

    Command

    Remarks

    1. Enter system view.

    system-view

    N/A

    2. Enter interface view.

    interface interface-type interface-number

    N/A

    3. Enable BFD control packet mode for IS-IS FRR.

    isis primary-path-detect bfd ctrl

    By default, BFD control packet mode is disabled for IS-IS FRR.

    To enable BFD echo packet mode for IS-IS FRR:

    Step

    Command

    Remarks

    1. Enter system view.

    system-view

    N/A

    2. Configure the source IP address of BFD echo packets.

    bfd echo-source-ip ip-address

    By default, the source IP address of BFD echo packets is not configured.

    The source IP address cannot be on the same network segment as any local interface's IP address.

    For more information, see High Availability Command Reference.

    3. Enter interface view.

    interface interface-type interface-number

    N/A

    4. Enable BFD echo packet mode for IS-IS FRR.

    isis primary-path-detect bfd echo

    By default, BFD echo packet mode is disabled for IS-IS FRR.
