import a default external AS route (for routing protocol domains
adjacent to the NSSA but not within the OSPF AS) into the NSSA
using the default-information-originate keyword.
• External routes advertised into an NSSA can include network
destinations outside the AS learned via OSPF, the default route, static
routes, routes imported from other routing protocols such as RIP, and
networks directly connected to the router that are not running OSPF.
•
NSSA external LSAs (Type 7) are converted by any ABR adjacent to the
NSSA
into external LSAs (Type-5), and propagated into other areas
within the AS.
• Also, note that unlike stub areas, all Type-3 summary LSAs are always
imported into NSSAs to ensure that internal routes are always chosen
over Type-7 NSSA external routes.
• This rou ter supports up to 16 total areas (either normal transit area s,
stubs, or NSSAs).
Example
This example creates a stub area 10.3.0.0, and assigns all interfaces with
class B addresses 10.3.x.x to the NSSA. It also instructs the router to
generate external LSAs into the NSSA when it is an NSSA ABR or NSSA
ASBR.
