Search the archives, I had to learn this the hard way....
And the answer is: If you have two ABR to an NSSA, the ABR with the highest
router-id will translate N2---to--->E2. If for some reason the ABR with
highest RID is not connected to area 0, no conversion will take place.
Easies solution is to change RIDs.
To paraphrase:
NSSA RFC 1587 states that before an NSSA ABR converts Type-7 to Type-5, all
NSSA ABR must examine all other NSSA ABR to determine the highest router-id.
The NSSA ABR with the highest router-id "must" the conversion from N2 to E2.

Subject: ABR of Not-So-Stubby Area
I've followed the link (911networks.com) some one posted it under group
study
one time, I've come across many summary they posted and felt so unsure about
it. There's one topic that I'd like to ask Group to confirm it.
Under the following link (about Not-So-Stubby Area):
http://911networks.com/node/234?PHPSESSID=38ceea92a6df4ad93d2fba9ecc647780
It said that "ONLY THE ROUTER WITH HIGHEST ROUTER-ID DOES THE CONVERSION LSA
7
TO 5, MAKE SHURE THAT IT'S THE ABR".
Is this true?
Thanks,
Jonathan.
