Usage

Routes learned from other routing protocols can be summarized. The metric used to advertise the

summary is the smallest metric of all the more specific routes. This command helps reduce the size of

the routing table.

Using this command for OSPF causes an OSPF Autonomous System Boundary Router (ASBR) to

advertise one external route as an aggregate for all redistributed routes that are covered by the address.

For OSPF, this command summarizes only routes from other routing protocols that are being

redistributed into OSPF. Use the area range command for route summarization between OSPF areas.

OSPF does not support the summary-address 0.0.0.0/0 command.


Examples

In the following example, the summary address 10.1.0.0 includes address 10.1.1.0, 10.1.2.0, 10.1.3.0,

and so on. Only the address 10.1.0.0 is advertised in an external link-state advertisement.

Switch(config-router)# summary-address 10.1.0.0/16
