I believe it is really just a tool for aggregating or summarizing NLSP
networks, not defining them.

Subject: What the heck is the NLSP area-address command for?

Running thought some testing the other night and I defined a network between
two routers, network 22. The router had a couple of other networks off other
interfaces involved in IPX RIP processes.

I then added the area-address command to define an exact match, area-address
22 FFFFFFFF.

Guess what, the 22 network appeared as an N route but so did all of the
other attached interfaces that were different networks?

What the heck is going on? I thought the area-address command defined which
networks were part of the routing process like OSPF?

Can anyone help me?
