Pete,

Thanks so much for your reply. The e.g. is at the near end of that link
(under the heading "Calculating the Shortest Path").

Thanks again for your help.

I don't see the example you are referring to, but a stub network is an
interface upon which there is no adjacency established. Interfaces are
listed one by one in each router's type 1 LSA along with the type being
transit or stub. For details like this, you should really consult the RFC.
