OSPF relies on the concept of logical areas. The use of areas enables the hiding of topology information between areas whilst still providing reachability. Each router in the area shares the same routing tables, which simplifies the network topology and helps to optimize the route calculation algorithm.

OSPF Area ID
Max value: 4294967295
SDK attribute: areaID
Set the OSPF area type. The default value is 'NORMAL', which represents either a backbone area or a standard area. If the areaID is 0, this attribute must be set to 'NORMAL'.
Allowed values: NORMAL, NSSA, STUB
Default value: NORMAL
SDK attribute: areaType
Explicit route cost metric for the default route generated. For STUB areas, it defaults to 1. It is null for the other types of areas.
Min value: 1
Max value: 16777215
SDK attribute: defaultMetric
Specifies whether an NSSA area generates a default route, and if it does, whether it is advertised as type 3 LSA or type 7 LSA. If the attribute is set to 'NONE', no default is generated.
Allowed values: NONE, TYPE3, TYPE7

This flag will determine whether external routes will be redistributed into the area or not. This is enabled only for NSSA areas.
SDK attribute: redistributeExternalEnabled
This flag determines whether Summaries (Type 3 LSAs) will be redistributed into the area or not. Applicable only to NSSA and Stub area types. Disabling this will make the area a Totally Stub or Totally NSSA area.
