OSPFv3 NSSA
NSSA (Not-So-Stubby-Area) is a stub area that does not support Type-5 LSAs, but supports Type-7 LSAs to forward external
links. Initially ASBR (Autonomous System Border Router) forwards the external links through Type-7 LSAs to the Area Border
Router (ABR) of NSSA, which in turn converts them into Type-5 LSAs and forwards them to the rest of the OSPF domain.
NOTE: To support NSSA area, all the OSPF routers in that area should be configured with NSSA.
NSSA Options
NSSA can be configured with the following options:
1. Default-information-originate – To inject a default route using Type-7 LSAs — NSSA routers need to have access to the
rest of the OSPF routers in the autonomous system. To facilitate this, the default route is injected into the NSSA area
through a Type-7 LSA. This can be generated either by NSSA ASBR or NSSA ABR.
2. No-redistribute – To restrict Type-7 LSAs — When NSSA ASBR is also an ABR, redistributed external routes need not be
translated from Type-7 to Type-5 LSAs. ABR will directly inject external routes through Type-5 LSAs into the OSPF domain.
It does not send Type-7 LSAs into the NSSA area.
