Hi, I just did this up in my lab and got the same results using the metric-type option. Always was a N2. I checked the 12.1 and 12.2 command reference for 'area nssa' and metric-type and metric aren't listed as options for this command in the docs. That might not mean anything though.
I also set a metric and metric-type 1 with same result. 'debug ip ospf lsa-gen' shows a external LSA for 0.0.0.0 being created as a type 2. As George stated a regular default-info-originate w/metric works fine. But then these options shouldn't be available on the area nssa command if they don't work. Anyone pursue this with the TAC or Cisco yet to confirm if its a bug?? --- Chee Kin wrote: > Hi Georg, > > I am using IOS12.1.7 and it allows me to issue this > syntax: > > area area-id nssa default-information originate > metric-type 1 > > On IOS 11.x, it only allows me to issue this: > > area area-id nssa default-information originate > > If I leave the metric-type 1 off, I will get *N2 for > the default route. > If I use default-information originate metric-type > 1, I will still get the > same result. > > Looks like I may need to get a copy of Jeff Doyle's > book and do a bit of > reading > on the NSSA stuff.
