Ans: BB area is required to connect two or more ospf areas.
 I would like to test if a router with two ospf processes can be a member of
two non-zero areas and redistribute may work?

Ans: redistribution on ASBR, ABR in nssa also converts type-7 to type-5,
default-info is also type-5 in normal areas?

Ans: not sure about question, virtual is link is already part of area 0. if
using tunnel then use them like ordinary interfaces.

Ans: Host routes in ospf are generated through using loopback or P2M, not

Ans: intra, inter area, E1, E2, Moreover, if a route learned form BB and the
same one from non-BB then route from BB is prefered.
