area default-cost

Description: 

Specifies a cost for the default summary route sent into a stub area. A stub area is an OSPF area that carries a default route, intra-area routes, and interarea routes, but does not carry external routes. You cannot configure virtual links across a stub area. Stub areas cannot contain an AS boundary router. The no version removes the configured default route cost.

Syntax: 

area { areaId | areaIdInt } default-cost defaultCost

no area { areaId | areaIdInt } default-cost

• areaId—OSPF area ID in IP address format
• areaIdInt—OSPF area ID as a decimal value 0-4294967295
• defaultCost—Stub area's advertised external route cost (cost metric); an integer in the range 0-16777215
