I would go with what works in your lab!!

seriously - try putting 11.3 on both routers, then 12.1 on both, and then
reverse the 11.3/12.1 (so 12.1 on L1 and 11.3 on L2) and see what happens.
I would imagine that you can get away with not enabling CLNS if you have
IS-IS on just a P2P link - maybe not in a multi-router environment - are you
running off loopback interfaces, or just the physicals?

I have had trouble with this in the past - albeit in a lab environment.  I
am always dubious about adding default-originates to Link-State protocols,
especially in an ISP enviroment where you want a default-free environment -
messing with outbound route-maps is a pain in the arse .

I will set this up in the lab again and see if I can nail it down once and
for all.
