add ospf stub

Use add ospf stub to add a stub area. This is an area where there is a single exit point from that area, or where routing to outside the area does not take an optimal path. Adding a stub area allows you to reduce the topological database size inside an area, and reduces the memory requirements of routers inside that area.
