Is it possible to configure an area in ospfd.conf to be a stub area? I have an area where all particpating routers (ciscos) are configured to treat it as a stub ie.
router ospf 1234 ... area 1 stub ... There doesn't appear to be a way of setting a similar option in ospfd.conf, so when I start ospfd I get errors like the following: recv_hello: ExternalRoutingCapability mismatch, interface vlan18 and no neighbour relationships are established. This is because all LSAs sent by the ABR have the ExternalRoutingCapability option set as per the OSPF specs for a stub area and ospfd appears to be hardcoded to drop these. Any suggestions welcome.
