I have been testing various configuration of a stub area. Here's the
network:
<RIP> --- 25T --- <OSPF area 5> --- 4kT --- <OSPF area 0> --- 4kE ---
<EIGRP>
When I configure the 25T and 4kT routers with no 'stub' commands, then all
the routes (C, O IA, O E2, and O*E2) all are present in the 25T router. The
4kT router has all its routes (C, O, O E2, O*E2). Every interface can ping
every other interface.
When I configure the 25T and 4kT with the 'area 5 stub', the 25T table
correctly has fewer routes (C, O IA, O*IA). Every interface can ping every
other interface. The RIP routes are not available in the 4kT router any
more (which is fine).
When I configure the 25T with 'area 5 stub' and the 4kT with 'area 5 stub
no-summary' this reduces the routing table in the 25T to only (C and O*IA).
All pings still work, except the RIP routes (which is fine).
When I configure the 25T and 4kT routers as Not-So-Stubby areas with 'area 5
nssa', I get all the routes in the 4kT I expect (C, O, O E2, O N2,O*E2).
However, the 25T has one fewer route than I expected. It has (C and O IA).
I lost the O*IA route that was my default to 0/0. Why? How do I get it
back.
Also, now the 25T router is trying to create a neighbor relation with the
4kE router! Which is in the DOWN/DROTHER state. Why? The 4kE is not
trying to make a relationship with the 25T router.
Here are some of the configs:

The 25E lo2 interface is not in any routing protocol. That is my test of
the default route.
