Re: Why a transit area cannot be a stub area?

If Area 0 itself is the Stub! Then No need of ASBR? As no routers can
understand LSA 5. So no point of Redistribution!
So, If your running a single process of OSPF, it can go upto Inter area
routes.. but External routes cannot be done.

There is no fun in running a single Routing protocol which doesn't allow us
to connect else where.
