VIAVI TestCenter: How to only advertise the passive interface addresses for ISIS?
• Passive interface concept applies to only a real DUT. Passive interface implies that the DUT does not run ISIS on that interface but it will advertise the route for that interface. It is typically used with Loopback/Router ID type interfaces.
• For VIAVI TestCenter all the interfaces we advertise are simulated or passive. STC runs ISIS Hellos and build Adjacency only on the directly connected physical interface.
• VIAVI TestCenter doesn’t have an option to just advertise passive interfaces but its possible to inactivate the LSPs you don’t want advertised.
