nssa-translator (OSPF)

Configures Not So Stubby Area (NSSA) Type 7-to-Type 5 Link State Advertisement (LSA) translation.

Synopsis nssa-translator

no nssa-translator

Defaults None

Defaults Translation is enabled.

Command Modes OSPF VRF router configuration mode

Description Use this command to enable or disable NSSA Type 7-to-Type 5 LSA translation on the NSSA Area

Border Router (ABR). Translation may be needed if routers within the NSSA need to know about

external routes. However, disabling this translation can be useful when the router is an area border

router with many NSSA areas, and does not need to export the NSSA external routes into the

backbone.

Usage Guidelines Enter no nssa-translator to disable NSSA Type 7-to-Type 5 translation.

Examples To disable NSAA Type 7-to-Type 5 LSA translation:

switch# configure

switch(config)# rbridge-id 5

switch(config-rbridge-id-5)#router ospf

switch(config-router-ospf-vrf-default-vrf)# no nssa-translator
