The isis dis-name command configures the name for the Designated Intermediate System (DIS).
The undo isis dis-name command deletes the name configured for the DIS.
By default, no name is configured for the DIS.

You can configure the name for the DIS on an interface only after you run the isis enable command to enable IS-IS on the interface. The DIS name is advertised in a pseudo-node LSP. In this manner, the configured DIS name is associated with the system ID of the DIS. This command takes effect only on the DIS in the broadcast network.
If the isis circuit-type command is run to emulate the interface as a P2P interface, the isis dis-name command becomes invalid on the interface; after the undo isis circuit-type command is run to restore the broadcast interface, the isis dis-name command becomes valid on the interface.
