Good question. Here are some documents that address part of it:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/customer/tech/tk648/tk365/technologies_tech_note0
9186a0080094a74.shtml
and another that talks about statics and e1/e2 routes:
http://www.cisco.com/warp/customer/104/3.html#14.0
The default information originate always causes the router to become an ASBR
and advertise a default route (external type 2) into OSPF even if it doesn't
have a default route. It allows you to specify the metric type and metric
though you can of course do that with statics as well in the redistribute
statement.
Ultimately I'll have to lab this up to see for myself if there are other
differences as it looks like both are valid.

Dear All,
If I have router with default route pointing to next-hop address then the
router running OSPF.
What is the difference between 2 configurations below?
1)
router ospf 1
redistribute static subnets
2)
router ospf 1
default-information originate always
Which config should I prefer?
TIA,
Janto
