Hi all, draft-ietf-ospf-nssa-update-11.txt Section 3.3: * "If internal addresses are not available, preference should be given to the router's active OSPF stub network addresses to avoid the possible extra hop of a transit network's address." I am not able to understand why ospf stub interface is given preference to type-5 or NSSA interface when loopback is not available. Or does stub means it also inclues NSSA network address in this case. It would be great if someone could share more information on this point. Thanks in advance, -Mani
