Nokia 4A0-112 - Nokia IS-IS Routing Protocol

The output shows two levels of IS-IS databases: Level 1 (L1) and Level 2 (L2). This indicates that the domain is multi-area, as L1 routers are confined to a single area, while L2 routers can route between different areas. The presence of Level 1/Level 2 (L1/L2) routers also suggests that the domain spans multiple areas.

The LSP (Link-State PDU) entries show L1/L2 ATT attributes, which typically indicate that these routers are capable of routing both within their own area (Level 1) and across areas (Level 2), suggesting a multi-area design.

The IS-IS domain likely includes broadcast interfaces, as indicated by the "ATT" attribute (typically referring to the type of interface) and common IS-IS configuration practices on broadcast networks like Ethernet.

The metric values between the routers dictate the routing paths, and IS-IS will calculate the shortest path based on these values.

R6 to R3: The path from R6 to R3 will go through R5 and R2, as this route has the least cumulative metric (10 + 10 + 15 = 35).

R3 to R6: The reverse path from R3 to R6 will follow R3 → R2 → R5 → R6 because this route is also the shortest with a total metric of 10 + 10 + 10 = 30.
