 Hi Sean and Iyux200,

i think the requirements requires you to use the area nssa no-redistribution
command

What this will do is make your local router an NSSA route bcos it does have
an external AS connected to it(i.e its doing a redistribution of routes from
another routing protocol). However, it will not accept routes redistributed
into ospf from other ASBRs in ur network.

To put it in another way, it makes all other routers in your netwrk know
that it has routes redistributed into it (NSSA) but it doesn't want to know
about redistributed routes from other ASBRs in ur network. Think about using
a default route to reach the other networks that you didnt allow in by using
the no-redistribute option of the nssa cmd
