That doesn't really answer why I'd want to remove it. Are you
implying that there is a way to use 'area 0 range' on an ABR
and then to remove the Null0 routes from the routing table
while still allowing the router to advertise the summarized
routes? I don't see how that would be possible.

Is this because of the 'no static route' rule? If so, I don't
think this qualifies. I haven't entered a static route into
the config at all. The OSPF area range command is simply
operating as it is designed to operate.

Or, are you saying we need to learn how to get the summarized
routes into IGRP without using the area range command *and*
without creating any null0 routes?

Am I being dense? :-) That's always a possibility, too!
