3.
Enable EVI on the interface.
evi enable
By default, EVI is disabled on all
interfaces.
Tuning EVI IS-IS parameters
EVI IS-IS automatically runs on an EVI link immediately after the link is set up. You can tune EVI
IS-IS parameters to optimize the protocol performance.
EVI IS-IS configuration task list
All EVI IS-IS configuration tasks are optional.

Remarks
N/A
Optimizing an EVI IS-IS network
:
•
Configuring the EVI IS-IS hello interval
•
Configuring the hello multiplier for calculating the
adjacency hold time
•
•
Configuring the CSNP transmit interval
•
Configuring the minimum LSP transmit interval and
the maximum number of LSPs sent at each interval
•
Configuring the maximum LSP lifetime
•
Configuring the LSP refresh interval
•
Associating an EVI tunnel interface with a track entry
Perform the EVI IS-IS network optimization
tasks to enable fast EVI link failure detection,
set appropriate MAC reachability information
update interval, and control the volume of LSP
and CSNP traffic on an EVI network.
Specifying a routing policy for an EVI IS-IS process
Perform this task to advertise a subset of MAC
addresses instead of all local MAC addresses
to remote sites.
Enabling adjacency change logging
N/A
Configuring SNMP notifications and context for EVI IS-IS
N/A
Configuring Graceful Restart for an EVI IS-IS process
Perform this task for providing nonstop
services.
Increasing the maximum number of MAC entries in an LSP
for an EVI IS-IS process
Perform this task depending on the MAC
address table size on the edge device.
Creating an EVI IS-IS process
Each EVI network has one EVI IS-IS process. Before you can configure settings in EVI IS-IS process
view, you must create the process.
An EVI IS-IS process is created automatically when you perform any one of the following tasks on a
tunnel interface:
•
Specify extended VLANs.
•
Perform network optimization tasks (see "
Optimizing an EVI IS-IS network
") except configuring
the LSP refresh interval and the maximum LSP lifetime.
