how do i make a ospf area as Totally-NSSA

how do i make a ospf area as Totally-Not So Stubby area.

the NSSA options what i see are:

default-cost - Configure the default routing cost

default-metric-type - Configure the default Metric Type

import-summary-routes - Configure import of Summary LSAs

off - Remove the NSSA option from the area

on - Configures an area to be an NSSA Area

range - Configure a network for the given NSSA

redistribution - Configure Type 5 LSA output for an area

translator-role - Configure translation of Type 7 LSAs into Type 5

translator-stability-interval - Configure the Translator Stability Interval (seconds)

i do not see "summary off" like we have in stub.

Hi,

Below is my config sample tried on my appliance:

set ospf area backbone on
set ospf area 0.0.0.1 on
set ospf area 0.0.0.1 nssa on
set ospf area 0.0.0.1 nssa default-metric-type 1
set ospf area 0.0.0.1 nssa import-summary-routes off

Is that suit on your environment?

whether this will send the summary default route.

Below is the parameter description from admin guide:

nssa import-summary-routes {on | off} -- Specifies if summary routes (summary link advertisements) are imported into the NSSA.

So it's not working?

Did this ever get resolved? I'm looking to do the same where I want the VS to be a totally stub are (cisco command would be area <1> stub no-summary), and as a result this injects a default GW into the area.
