(Optional.) Specify a cost
for the default route
advertised to the stub area.
default-cost cost
The default setting is 1.
The default-cost cost command takes
effect only on the ABR of a stub area or
totally stub area.
Configuring an NSSA area
A stub area cannot import external routes, but an NSSA area can import external routes into the OSPF
routing domain while retaining other stub area characteristics.
Do not configure the backbone area as an NSSA area or totally NSSA area.
To configure an NSSA area, configure the nssa command on all the routers attached to the area.
To configure a totally NSSA area, configure the nssa command on all the routers attached to the area
and configure the nssa no-summary command on the ABR. The ABR of a totally NSSA area does not
advertise inter-area routes into the area.
