Hi, When I read RFC2328 these days, I found this (at the end of Section 6): StubDefaultCost If the area has been configured as a stub area, and the router itself is an area border router, then the StubDefaultCost indicates the cost of the default summary-LSA that the router should advertise into the area. See Section 12.4.3 for more information. This reminds me, one of my former questions about "stub cost num" configuration in BIRD. So does the parameter "stub cost num" means StubDefaultCost in RFC2328? Thanks! 2009/4/27 Ondrej Zajicek <santiago@crfreenet.org>:

Hi,
I noticed this in the User's Guide:
stub cost num
No external (except default) routes are flooded into stub areas. Setting this value marks area stub with defined cost of default route. Default value is no. (Area is not stub.)
It says the default value is NO, so what does this mean? For example, if the area is not a stub one, how should I configure the stub cost value?
It should be "stub no" or just ignore it. This is an inaccuracy in the documentation.
