[j-nsp] ISIS - "passive"

I came across the following config when I was looking at an ISIS
routing instance in 5.1 Online Manual.

protocols {
        isis {
                rib-group common;
                export filter-on-voice-policy;
                interface so-2/2/2.0;
                interface so-4/2/2.0;
                passive;
        }
}

My question is, why would we want to put "passive" here? If
"interface so-2/2/2.0 passive" I understand what we are supposed
to get but with the above configuration, are we telling the
router to set both interface as passive or for other purposes???

Any help will be very much appreciated.
