I am working through an IS-IS configuration in the SYBEX BSCI book. I followed the example configs exactly but my routers can not establish adjacency. Any IS-IS gurus with any ideas?
I don't want to post configs yet as the config from the sample chapter is very straightforward. I'm probably missing a trick.
Thanks

You're not giving any information to go on. How are we supposed to know what you have configured?

MTU mismatch comes first to my mind.I don't know what is in BSCI book, so without seeing what have you configured there are many guesses. Did you configure clns routing? did you configure 'clns routing', is-is routing process with NET, and 'ip router isis' on the interfaces?
'debug isis adj' should give you some idea what might be wrong
Kind regards, iLya

I thought it may be a problem with MTU sizes but the mtu size used by RouterA and RouterB are the same.
OK, here is the scenario and config:
Two routers - RouterA and RouterB connected across a serial interface.
Config for Router A - level 1
---------------------------- RouterA#show run Building configuration...
Current configuration : 640 bytes ! version 12.2 service timestamps debug uptime service timestamps log uptime no service password-encryption ! hostname RouterA ! ! ip subnet-zero ! clns routing ! ! ! interface Ethernet0 ip address 192.168.50.1 255.255.255.0 ip router isis clns router isis no shutdown ! interface Ethernet1 no ip address shutdown ! interface Serial0 no ip address ! interface Serial0.1 ip address 192.168.40.1 255.255.255.0 ip router isis clns router isis ! interface Serial1 no ip address ! router isis net 01.0000.0000.0001.00 is-type level-1 ! ip classless no ip http server ! ! ! line con 0 exec-timeout 0 0 line aux 0 line vty 0 4 login ! end
Config for RouterB - level-1-2
-------------------------- RouterB#show run Building configuration...
Current configuration : 1043 bytes ! version 12.2 service timestamps debug uptime service timestamps log uptime no service password-encryption ! hostname RouterB ! ! ip subnet-zero ! clns routing ! ! ! interface Serial0 no ip address shutdown ! interface Serial1 no ip address clockrate 64000 ! interface Serial1.1 ip address 192.168.30.1 255.255.255.0 ip router isis ! interface Serial2 no ip address clockrate 64000 ! interface Serial2.1 ip address 192.168.40.2 255.255.255.0 ip router isis clns router isis ! router isis net 01.0000.0000.0002.00 ! ip classless no ip http server ! ! ! line con 0 line aux 0 line vty 0 4 login ! end
On RouterA, here is the output of show clns neighbor and debug isis adj: RouterA#show clns neighbor

That won't work with sub-interfaces when main serial interface uses HDLC - the router doesn't know where to deliver packets once they reach the router's main interface. Configure IP directly on the main interface.

This worked. The example in the book was configured for FRAME-RELAY.
Many Thanks

with Frame-relay sub-interfaces surely will work because there is DLCI to distinguish between sub-interfaces.

When using IS-IS with frame relay, you will also have to add a frame relay map for the CLNS protocol for IS-IS to work.
