An area ID is a 32-bit integer in dotted-decimal format that uniquely identifies the area to 

which a router interface connects.

If you select Enable, summary LSAs are imported into stub areas.

Configure the Default Cost by entering the metric value to be applied for the default route

SPF Runs

The number of times that the intra-area route table was calculated 
using this area's link state database. This is typically done using 
Dijkstra's algorithm.

Area Border Router Count

The total number of area border routers reachable within this area. This 
is initially zero, and is calculated in each SPF pass.

Area LSA Count

The total number of link state advertisements in this area's link state 
database, excluding AS external LSAs.

Area LSA Checksum

The 32-bit unsigned sum of the link state advertisements' LSA 
checksums contained in this area's link state database. This sum 
excludes external (LSA type 5) link state advertisements. The sum can 
be used to determine if there was a change in a router's link state 
database, and to compare the link state database of two routers.
