Description

• Import Summary LSAs Select enable or disable from the pulldown menu. If you select enable summary

LSAs will be imported into stub areas.

• 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.

• Metric Type

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

• OSPF Metric - Regular OSPF metric

• Comparable Cost - External Type 1 metrics that are comparable to the

OSPF metric

• Non-comparable Cost - External Type 2 metrics that are assumed to be

larger than the cost of the OSPF metric

Non-Configurable Data

Object

Description

• Area ID -

The OSPF area. An Area ID is a 32 bit integer in dotted decimal format that

uniquely identifies the area to which a router interface connects.

• Aging Interval -

The Link State Advertisement (LSA) aging timer interval.

• 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. If the area is a stub area,

then these are the possible options for which you may configure the external

routing capability, otherwise the only option is "Import External LSAs".

•

Import External LSAs - Import and propagate external LSAs

•

Import No LSAs - Do not import and propagate external LSAs

• Authentication Type -

Currently set to 'None'.

• SPF Runs -

The number of times that the intra-area route table has been calculated using this

area's link-state database. This is typically 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
