8. The options in the Default Information Originate section of the table let you configure
the switch to advertise a default route into the NSSA when the import of summary
LSAs is disabled:
a. From the Admin Mode menu, select Enable to let the switch advertise a default
route or Disable to prevent the switch from doing so.
b. In the Metric Value field, set the metric value for the default route.
The range is from 1 to 16777214.
c. From the Metric Type menu, select the type of metric that must used in the
default route:
• Comparable Cost: External type 1 metrics that are comparable to the OSPFv3
metric
• Non-comparable Cost: External type 2 metrics that are assumed to be larger
than the cost of the OSPFv3 metric.
9. From the Translator Role menu, select the role of the NSSA:
• Always: The switch assumes the role of the translator when it becomes a border
router.
• Candidate: The switch participates in the translator election process when it
attains border router status.
10. In the Translator Stability Interval field, enter the period during which the switch
extends its translator role after another device becomes the translator.
The range is from 0 to 3600 minutes.
11. From the Redistribute Mode menu, select if learned external routes are redistributed:
• Enable: The NSSA ABR distributes learned external routes to the NSSA.
• Disable: The NSSA ABR does not distribute learned external routes to the NSSA.
12. Click the Add button.
The area is added as an NSSA area.
13. To save the settings to the running configuration, click the Save icon.
