Specifying a Priority for IS-IS
A router may run multiple routing protocols. When routes to the same destination are found by multiple

routing policy to specify a priority for specific routes. For information about routing policy, see Routing
Policy Configuration in the Layer 3 - IP Routing Configuration Guide.
Follow these steps to configure the priority of IS-IS.
