[c-nsp] OSPF NSSA question

[Ruben Alvarez]

That does look like it would work for me.  Thanks for all the input.

Hi!

You gave me a good reason to finally test this command and document what it
does and how it's used in a hub-and-spoke environment:

http://wiki.nil.com/OSPF_flooding_filters_in_hub-and-spoke_environment

It's exactly what's needed to solve the original problem (but of course you
need a static default route on the spoke routers as they lose all OSPF
information).

Best regards
Ivan
