sanity-check-lsp


Enables IS-IS TLV exception checking on this router.

Syntax: [no] sanity-check-lsp

Description: IS-IS TLV exception checking performs a series of semantic and syntax checks on IS-IS packets. Any malformed packets are logged and dropped. The overhead associated with enabling exception checking will negatively affect IGP convergence time due to the delay in installing an LSP and triggering an SPF. The syntax check before flooding will cause some delay in network convergence.

The syntax check determines the syntactic correctness of incoming LSPs for all TLVs by code, length and value.

The following semantic checks are made:

Use the sanity-check-lsp command in IS-IS router configuration mode to enable IS-IS TLV exception checking on this router.

Use the no sanity-check-lsp command in IS-IS router configuration mode to disable IS-IS TLV exception checking.

Factory Default: Disabled.

Command Mode: IS-IS configuration.

Example 1: In the following example IS-IS TLV exception checking is enabled on IS-IS router tsr:

router#configure terminal

Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.

router(config)#router isis tsr

router(config-router)#sanity-check-lsp

router(config-router)#end

router#

Example 2: In the following example IS-IS TLV exception checking is disabled on IS-IS router tsr:

router#configure terminal

Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.

router(config)#router isis tsr

router(config-router)#no sanity-check-lsp

router(config-router)#end

router#
