z
After LSP fragment extension is enabled for an IS-IS process, the MTUs of all the interfaces
running the IS-IS process must not be less than 512; otherwise, LSP fragment extension will not
take effect.
z
At least one virtual system needs to be configured for the router to generate extended LSP
fragments. An IS-IS process allows 50 virtual systems at most.
Limiting LSP flooding
In well connected NBMA networks, many P2P links exist. The following figure shows a fully meshed
network, where Switchs A, B, C and D run IS-IS. When Switch A generates an LSP, it floods the LSP
out VLAN-interface 100, VLAN-interface 200 and VLAN-interface 300. After receiving the LSP from
VLAN-interface 100, Switch D floods it out VLAN-interface 200 and VLAN-interface 300 to Switch B
and Switch C, which however has received the LSP from Router A. In this case, LSP flooding
consumes extra bandwidth.
