Configuring a Totally Stubby Area
You can create a totally stubby area and prevent all summary route updates from going into the stub area.
To create a totally stubby area, use the following command in router configuration mode:
Command Purpose

switch(config-router)#
Creates a new OSPFv2 instance with the configured
instance tag.
