Stub Area Specific Parameters.

Metric Value - Enter the metric value you want applied for the default route advertised into the stub
area. Valid values range from 1 to 16,777,215. This value is applicable only to Stub areas.

NSSA Specific Parameters.

Default Information Originate - The default Route Information. This can also be applied by the CLI
command 'area (area-id) nssa default-info-originate' in the ipv6 router ospf config mode. Valid values
are True or False.

Default Metric - Set the Default Metric value for NSSA. The valid range of values is (1 to 16777214).

Metric Type Type - Select the type of metric specified in the Metric Value field.

Default - The default metric value. On CLI this value shows up as "-------"

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

Translator Role - NSSA Border router's ability to perform NSSA translation of type-7 LSAs into
type-5 LSAs. The valid values are 'Always' and 'Candidate'.

Translator Stability Interval - The number of seconds after an elected translator determines its
services are no longer required, that it should continue to perform its translation duties. The valid
range of values is (0 to 3600).

No-Redistribute Mode - Enable or Disable the No-Redistribute Mode.

Non-Configurable Data

Area ID - The OSPFv3 area. An Area ID is a 32 bit integer in dotted decimal format that uniquely
identifies the area to which a router interface connects.

External Routing - A definition of the router's capabilities for the area, including whether or not
AS-external-LSAs are flooded into/throughout the area.

SPF Runs - The number of times that the intra-area route table has been calculated using this area's
link-state database. This is done using Dijkstra's algorithm.

Area Border Router Count - The total number of area border routers reachable within this area.
This is initially zero, and is calculated in each SPF Pass.

Area LSA Count - The total number of link-state advertisements in this area's link-state database,
excluding AS External LSAs.

Area LSA Checksum - The 32-bit unsigned sum of the link-state advertisements' LS checksums
contained in this area's link-state database. This sum excludes external (LS type 5) link-state
advertisements. The sum can be used to determine if there has been a change in a router's link state
database, and to compare the link-state database of two routers.

Stub Area Specific Parameters.

Metric Value - The Configured Metric value for the Stub. This can be modified using the CLI
command 'area (area-id) default-cost' in the ipv6 router ospf config mode. The valid range is (1 to
16777215).

NSSA Specific Parameters.

Translator State - Translator State 'Enabled' means that the NSSA router OSPFv3 Area NssA
Translator Role has been set to always. Translator State of 'Elected' means a candidate NSSA
