Hi all,

question, if there is an ABR router with some interfaces in area 0 and other
interfaces in nssa area 5. If there is an external route redistributed in
to area 0 as a type E1, and the same route is redsitributed into nssa area
5, the router acting as the abr will see both in the ospf database, but
which one will it use and put in the routing table, the nssa route, or the
E1 route from area 0?

Is this network topology below valid? Can both ABR inject a default route
into the NSSA area 5 and use metric to pick the preferred path? Or can you
have only one ABR in a NSSA?

THank you.
