OSPF Area Parameters

You can optionally configure several OSPF area parameters. These parameters include authentication for
password-based protection against unauthorized access to an area, stub areas, and not-so-stubby-areas
(NSSAs). Stub areas are areas into which information about external routes is not sent. Instead, the area
border router (ABR) generates a default external route into the stub area for destinations outside the
autonomous system (AS). An NSSA does not flood all LSAs from the core into the area, but can import
AS external routes within the area by redistribution.
Route summarization is the consolidation of advertised addresses into a single summary route to be
advertised by other areas. If network numbers are contiguous, you can use the area range router
configuration command to configure the ABR to advertise a summary route that covers all networks in
the range.
The OSPF area router configuration commands are all optional.
