To name a discovered IS-IS object, Network Protocol Manager for IS-IS uses the appropriate naming format in Naming formats for discovered IS-IS objects to assign the object a unique name. It then populates the object’s Name and DisplayName attributes with that name.

ISISArea

Name:ISIS-AREA-<area number>

An area number consists of an authority and format indicator (AFI) (38 in the following example) plus an area identifier (0008 in the following example).

For example:ISIS-AREA-380008

DisplayName:<same as Name>

ISISService

Name:ISIS-SVC-<host device name>

For example:ISIS-SVC-dev-MPLSp9

DisplayName:<same as Name>

ISISNetwork

Name:ISIS-NET-<IP network address>-<netmask value>

For example:ISIS-NET-10.9.252.0-255.255.252.0

DisplayName:<same as Name>

ISISInterface 1

Name:ISIS-IF-<host device name>/<interface key>

For example:ISIS-IF-qa-vpls1/3

DisplayName:ISIS-IF-<host device name>/<interface key> [<interface device identifier>]

     [<interface IP address>] [<comment (optional)>]

For example:ISIS-IF-qa-vpls1/3 [Fa1/0] [172.21.1.2] [to qa-MPLSp1]

ISISNeighborEndpoint 1

Name:ISIS-EP-ISIS-IF-<host device name>/<interface key>--><neighbor interface IP address>

For example:ISIS-EP-ISIS-IF-qa-vpls1/3-->172.21.1.1
