This read-create object controls whether summary LSAs are imported into a stub area for a specific OSPF topology, taking the value noAreaSummary or sendAreaSummary. Setting it to noAreaSummary makes the router rely entirely on its default route for that topology instead of learning inter-area routes, while sendAreaSummary allows summary propagation. For example, an admin configuring a small branch-office stub area might leave this at the default noAreaSummary to minimize the router's routing table.
