        A not-so-totally-stubby area (nssa no-summary) is a totally stubby
area that you can redistribute into.  The ABR of the NSTSA automatically
originates a default of LSA type-3 into the area:
Rack1R1#sh run | b router ospf
router ospf 1
 area 12 nssa
 network 12.0.0.1 0.0.0.0 area 12
Rack1R2#sh run | b router ospf
router ospf 1
 area 12 nssa no-summary
 network 12.0.0.2 0.0.0.0 area 12
 network 150.1.2.2 0.0.0.0 area 0
Rack1R1#show ip route ospf
O*IA 0.0.0.0/0 [110/11] via 12.0.0.2, 00:02:49, Ethernet0/0
Rack1R1#show ip ospf database
            OSPF Router with ID (150.1.1.1) (Process ID 1)
                Router Link States (Area 12)
Link ID         ADV Router      Age         Seq#       Checksum Link count
150.1.1.1       150.1.1.1       188         0x80000002 0x0006CE 1
150.1.2.2       150.1.2.2       188         0x80000003 0x00F8D2 1
                Net Link States (Area 12)
Link ID         ADV Router      Age         Seq#       Checksum
12.0.0.2        150.1.2.2       189         0x80000001 0x001342
                Summary Net Link States (Area 12)
Link ID         ADV Router      Age         Seq#       Checksum

        An NSSA for which the ABR originates a default is different (nssa
default-information-originate).  This is an LSA type-7 default (N1 or N2, N2
by default):
Rack1R2#sh run | b router ospf
router ospf 1
 log-adjacency-changes
 area 12 nssa default-information-originate
 network 12.0.0.2 0.0.0.0 area 12
 network 150.1.2.2 0.0.0.0 area 0
Rack1R1#sh ip route ospf
     150.1.0.0/16 is variably subnetted, 3 subnets, 2 masks
O IA    150.1.2.2/32 [110/11] via 12.0.0.2, 00:00:46, Ethernet0/0
O*N2 0.0.0.0/0 [110/1] via 12.0.0.2, 00:00:42, Ethernet0/0
Rack1R1#sh ip ospf database
            OSPF Router with ID (150.1.1.1) (Process ID 1)
                Router Link States (Area 12)
Link ID         ADV Router      Age         Seq#       Checksum Link count

150.1.2.2       150.1.2.2       568         0x80000003 0x00F8D2 1
