–
nssa—Similar to a stub area but autonomous system external routes can be imported into the
area.
• Auth. Type—Authentication type for the area. The authentication type must be the same for all routers
and access servers in an area. The authentication password for all OSPF routers on a network must be the
same if they are to communicate with each other using OSPF. The Authentication type has the
following values:
–
none—The area does not enforce any authentication.
–
simple—Simple password authentication is used.
–
md5—MD5 authentication is enabled for the area.
• Def. Cost—Default cost for the area. Use this value only on an area border router attached to a stub
area. It provides a metric for the summary default route generated by the area border router into the stub
area.
• NSSA Def. Info. Orig.—Generates a Type 7 default into the NSSA area. This argument takes effect only
on an NSSA area border router or an NSSA AS border router
.
• NSSA No Redistrib.—Used when the router is a NSSA area border router and routes are to be imported
only into the normal areas, but not into the NSSA area.
• Stub No Summary—Indicates that an area border router is sending summary link advertisements into
the stub area.
• Remove Area—Removes an explicit NSSA or stub area configuration to the OSPF routing process.
The action can only be used on an area border router attached to a stub or NSSA area.
