When an ABR NSSA router is configured to be ALWAYS the translator:
r22(config-router)# area 1 nssa translate-always
It will advertise this condition in the type-1 LSA setting the Nt
bit, taking over the translator role from r33
r22# show ip ospf
We are an ABR and always an NSSA Translator.
r33# show ip ospf
We are an ABR, but not the NSSA Elected Translator.
However when the command above is removed:
r22(config-router)# no area 1 nssa translate-always
the bit Nt needs to be cleared otherwise we end up with no translator
in the area
r22# show ip ospf
We are an ABR, but not the NSSA Elected Translator.
r33# show ip ospf
We are an ABR, but not the NSSA Elected Translator.
This PR forces the ABR to send a type-1 LSA with the Nt bit updated
according to the translator role
