A stub area is connected to only one other area. The area that connects to a stub area can be the backbone area. External route information is not distributed into stub areas. Stub areas are used to reduce memory and computation requirements on OSPF routers.
The following command configures an OSPF area as a stub area:
configure ospf area 0.0.0.6 stub nosummary stub-default-cost 10
This command was first available in ExtremeXOS 10.1.
