P.S. is it mistake about IS-IS default policy - that IS-IS rejected by default learned routes from direct protocol? Check this link http://img843.imageshack.us/img843/3264/isisdefaultpolicy.png
I think its must be accepted, and also in the next term we have the same reject action... -- AA 2009/12/4 Akhmedd Aly <[email protected]> > Hi, > > can someone explain this difference between this 1-12 steps order in case > of internal/external metric > > Each IS-IS router translates the information in the database into usable > routes by implementing the > Shortest Path First (SPF) algorithm.
