• An NSSA (Not So Stubby Area) is similar to a stub area. However, where autonomous system (AS) 
external routes cannot be imported into a stub area, an NSSA will allow the importing of some AS 
external routes.
• Area ranges, once created, are enabled by default. Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR) can work 
with OSPF to make route summarization more efficient. This is especially true for the summarization 
of routes in the global database. OSPF area address ranges can be configured on area border routers
Examples
-> ip ospf area 1.1.1.1 range summary 172.22.2.0 255.255.255.0
-> no ip ospf area 1.1.1.1 range summary 172.22.2.0 255.255.255.0
