Manny,

>From what I have seen playing with it, you will only get a default route sent
if the L1/L2 knows about at least two areas. Tried redistributing another prot
ocol into a L1/L2 to turn it into an "ASBR", but still no default sent. Other
than redistributing a default, seems to need at least two areas.
