Example for Configuring IS-IS Route Summarization
Networking Requirements
As shown in Figure 7-35, three routers run IS-IS to communicate with each other. RouterA is a Level-2 router, RouterB is a Level-1-2 router, and RouterC is a Level-1 router. RouterA is heavily loaded because there are too many routing entries on the IS-IS network. Therefore, system resource consumption of RouterA needs to be reduced.
Configuration Roadmap
The configuration roadmap is as follows:
Configure IP addresses for interfaces and enable IS-IS on each router so that the routers can be interconnected.
Configure route summarization on RouterB to reduce the routing table size of RouterA without affecting data forwarding so that the system resource consumption of RouterA can be reduced.
Procedure
- Configure IP addresses for interfaces on each router.
# Configure RouterA.
<Huawei> system-view[Huawei] sysname RouterA[RouterA] interface gigabitethernet 2/0/0[RouterA-GigabitEthernet2/0/0] ip address 172.2.1.1 24[RouterA-GigabitEthernet2/0/0] quitThe configurations of RouterB and RouterC are similar to the configuration of RouterA, and are not mentioned here.
- Configure basic IS-IS functions.

- Check the IS-IS routing table of RouterA.
