Configuring an NSSA Address Range
To implement an NSSA, you must configure at least one type 7 address range for
summarization and filtering in the translation of type 7 LSAs to type 5 LSAs.
Each type 7 address range consists of an address/mask pair representing multiple
external networks. The NSSA border router checks for configured type 7 address
ranges and then originates a single type 5 LSA for each range. If a network is not
contained in any configured address range, type 7 LSAs are translated to type 5
LSAs directly and flooded to all non-stub areas.
Using the BCC
To configure an address range for an NSSA, navigate to the area prompt (for
example,
box; ip; ospf; area/0.0.0.2
) and enter:
nssa-range
<network>/<mask>
network
and
mask
together specify all networks that belong to the NSSA address
range. The range mask is not restricted to the natural address class mask.
To change the default values for an OSPF NSSA address range, enter:
<area_parameter> <value>
area_parameter value
is one of the parameter/value pairs described in Table 6-8.
Table 6-8. BCC Address Range Parameters for OSPF NSSA
Parameter Value Function
action advertise (default)
block
Specifies whether the border router
advertises type 5 LSAs for an NSSA address
range. An NSSA border router advertises a
single external route for each type 7 address
range when you set this parameter to
advertise.
ase-tag 0 (default)
to 16777215
Specifies the value to insert in the external
route tag field of translated type 5 LSAs
configured for a type 7 address range
state enabled (default)
disabled
Enables or disables this address range
