Good man, you gave me an idea.

Ran through the documentation and found out how to deal with Hello
Padding in FRR:

interface em0
 ip router isis 1
 ipv6 router isis 1
 no isis hello padding

Looks like IS-IS now initializes:

2020/04/06 10:09:21 ISIS: Opened BPF device /dev/bpf0
2020/04/06 10:09:21 ISIS: BPF buffer len = 4096
2020/04/06 10:09:21 ISIS: failed to set BPF buffer len (4096 to 9000)
2020/04/06 10:09:21 ISIS: circuit already connected
2020/04/06 10:09:21 ISIS: circuit already connected
2020/04/06 10:09:21 ISIS: circuit already connected

Let me continue with the configuration and report back.

Mark.
