Configuring Stub Areas
OSPF supports different types of LSAs to help reduce the amount of router processing within the areas.
Type 5 LSAs are not flooded into stub areas; the ABR advertises a default route into the stub area to which it is attached. Stub area
routers use the default route to reach external destinations.
To ensure connectivity in your OSPFv2 network, never configure the backbone area as a stub area.
To configure a stub area, use the following commands.
1. Review all areas after they were configured to determine which areas are NOT receiving type 5 LSAs.
EXEC Privilege mode
show ip ospf process-id [vrf] database database-summary
2. Enter CONFIGURATION mode.
EXEC Privilege mode
configure
3. Enter ROUTER OSPF mode.
CONFIGURATION mode
router ospf process-id [vrf]
Process ID is the ID assigned when configuring OSPFv2 globally.
4. Configure the area as a stub area.
CONFIG-ROUTER-OSPF-id mode
area area-id stub [no-summary]
Use the keywords no-summary to prevent transmission into the area of summary ASBR LSAs.
Area ID is the number or IP address assigned when creating the area.
Example of the show ip ospf database database-summary Command
To view which LSAs are transmitted, use the show ip ospf database process-id database-summary command in
EXEC Privilege mode.
