isis lfa-backup

Function

The isis lfa-backup command enables an IS-IS interface to participate in loop-free alternate (LFA) calculation so that the interface can be a candidate for a backup interface.

The undo isis lfa-backup command disables an IS-IS interface from participating in LFA calculation.

By default, an IS-IS interface can participate in LFA calculation.

Usage Guidelines

To facilitate traffic management and avoid the uncertainty in the traffic forwarding path in the case the primary link fails, run the undo isis lfa-backup command on some interfaces to disable them from participating in LFA calculation.

IS-IS has been enabled on the interface using the isis enable command.
