Question 218

The network team is planning to implement IPv6 on the company's existing IPv4 network infrastructure. The network currently uses IS-IS to share routes between peers. Which task must the team perform so that IS-IS will run in multitopology mode on the updated IPv6 network?

    Correct Answer: B

    To run IS-IS in multitopology mode on an IPv6 network, the network routers must be configured to use metric-style wide. This configuration is necessary because the TLVs (Type-Length-Values) used to advertise IPv6 information in link-state packets (LSPs) use extended metrics, which require the use of the wide metric style.

Discussion
rvolfoniOption: B

When multitopology support for IPv6 is used, use the metric-style widecommand to configure IS-IS to use new-style TLVs because TLVs used to advertise IPv6 information in link-state packets (LSPs) are defined to use only extended metrics.

ccie_raceOption: B

B seems the correct option

orelucOption: B

i would go for B. metric-type wide is mandatory!

encoOption: B

metric is optional os mentioned on config guide: The optional isis ipv6 metric command allows you to differentiate between link costs for IPv6 and IPv4 traffic when operating in multitopology mode.
