On a broadcast link, Level-1 and Level-2 hello packets are advertised separately. You must set a hello
multiplier for each level.
On a P2P link, Level-1 and Level-2 hello packets are advertised in P2P hello packets. You do not need to
specify Level-1 or Level-2.

Configuring a DIS priority for an interface
On a broadcast network, IS-IS must elect a router as the DIS at a routing level. You can specify a DIS
priority at a level for an interface. The greater the interface's priority, the more likely it becomes the DIS.
If multiple routers in the broadcast network have the same highest DIS priority, the router with the highest
MAC address becomes the DIS.
