enable ospf originate-default {always} cost cost type [ase-type-1 | ase-type-2] {tag number}

Description

Enables a default external LSA to be generated by OSPF, if no other default route is originated by OSPF by way of RIP and static route re-distribution.

Syntax Description

cost Specifies a cost metric.
ase-type-1 Specifies AS-external type 1 routes.
ase-type-2 Specifies AS-external type 2 routes.
