Jin,

Sorry there was an omission in my previous post regarding

>RFC3101 2.5 Calculating type-7 as external routes (3) states:

The answer is still yes as stated in the previous post; but also all Type 7
default LSAs are ignored by NSSA ABRs when the no-summary option is
configured. Whenever an NSSA ABR has no-summary configured, its default LSA
has Type 3 so that it is preferred, in OSPF, by every one of the NSSA's non-ABR
routers. The NSSA's ABR type 3 default LSA insures that the NSSA's non-ABRs
must follow a summary default path through one of its ABRs when forwarding
traffic to inter-area destinations.

However, if one of the NSSA's non-ABRs has an installed non-OSPF default
route, like a static default route, enabling no-summary on the NSSA border
could adversely impact this non-ABR's ability to forward traffic to OSPF
inter-area destinations.
