Hi John, Mani,
What if the VRF was an ABR, and simply supplied a default route to the CE in the stub?
I think this should work and allow the PE-CE link be part of a stub area.
Thanks,
Rob.

Hi Jonh,
I tried to do similar kind of testing, that is configuring PE-CE link as stub. But as PE will be ASBR, we cannot configure it in a stub.
rfc 2328: Section 3.6
AS boundary routers cannot be placed internal to stub areas.
Thanks,
Mani
