Parameters
is-name: Assigns a hostname to the device, a string of 1 to 64 characters.
Usage guidelines
ISIS-SPB uses a 6-byte system ID to represent a node in the network. This representation method is difficult for administrators to identify devices when they examine ISIS-SPB adjacencies, FDB entries, and LSDB entries.
Dynamic hostname exchange enables you to assign a symbolic hostname to each SPBM node. ISIS-SPB advertises this information in the Dynamic hostname TLV in LSPs to remote LSDBs.
Examples
# Enable dynamic hostname exchange and assign the ISIS-SPB hostname spbm to the device.
<Sysname> system-view [Sysname] spbm [Sysname-spbm] is-name spbm
