ISIS hostname reflecting suffix re0/re1 on MX Junos which not the case in EVO. Use of static-host-mapping doesn't help to change the hostname in ISIS database
ISIS database picks the hostname from "set system host-name" stanza. Whatever hostname is configured under this stanza, same will be picked by ISIS database in Junos. In Jinos, we generally configure hsotname with suffic re0/re1, however, in EVO, we don't usually configure suffix re0/re1 and system adds it by default and hence the behaviour is different in both. Static-host-mapping is not to change the host-name in isis database but it is to map hostname & system id hence as per https://www.juniper.net/documentation/us/en/software/junos/is-is/topics/task/junos-software-router-is-system-identifier-configuring.html Example: PTX: JTAC-re0# show | display set | match host-name set groups re0 system host-name sparrow set groups re1 system host-name sparrow {master}[edit] JTAC-re0# run show isis database extensive | match host Hostname: sparrow Hostname: jtac-MX204-r042-re0 MX: JTAC-re0# show | display set | match host-name set groups re0 system host-name jtac-MX204-r042-re0 [edit] JTAC-re0# run show isis database extensive | match host Hostname: sparrow Hostname: jtac-MX204-r042-re0
