area <AREA-ID> stub

Description

Creates the stub area with <AREA-ID> if not present. If area is present and is not the stub area, this command changes the area type to stub area. If no-summary is used, area type will be totally stubby area.

The no form of this command unsets the area type as stub. The configured area will be changed to the default normal area. The no area <AREA-ID> stub no_summary command will start sending Area Border Router (ABR) summary link advertisements into the stub area, but will not unset the stub area.
