When configuring a stub area, why is it that all routers 
in the stub area must be tagged as being in a stub? 

Ok, so the Hello mechanism requires that adjacent routers
agree that they are in the same area and both have been 
configured as being in a stub area.

Besides the Hello negotiation, what is the reason for requiring
this?  Why is it not sufficient to tag the stub area ABRs as
being stubs and be done with it (much like is done with the 
"no-summary" tag being required only in ABRs to a totally
stubby area)?

Thanks
Brian
