Configuring the IS-IS Cost

When you change from one IS-IS metric style to another, the IS-IS metric value could be affected. For each interface with IS-IS enabled, you can assign a cost or metric that is used in the link state calculation.

To change the metric or cost of the interface, use the following commands.
  • Assign an IS-IS metric.
    INTERFACE mode
    isis metric default-metric [level-1 | level-2]
    • default-metric: the range is from 0 to 63 if the metric-style is narrow, narrow-transition, or transition.
    The range is from 0 to 16777215 if the metric style is wide or wide transition.
  • Assign a metric for an IPv6 link or interface.
    INTERFACE mode
    isis ipv6 metric default-metric [level-1 | level-2]
    • default-metric: the range is from 0 to 63 for narrow and transition metric styles. The range is from 0 to 16777215 for wide metric styles.

    The default is 10.
    The default level is level-1.
    For more information about this command, refer to Configuring the IS-IS Metric Style.

The following table describes the correct value range for the isis metric command.

Metric Sytle

To view the interface’s current metric, use the show config command in INTERFACE mode or the show isis interface command in EXEC Privilege mode.
