Parameter Description
Summary Address
Select the level and enter the summary addresses here. This is used to create
aggregate addresses for ISIS.
Multiple groups of addresses can be summarized for a given level. Routes
learned from other routing protocols can also 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. This command also reduces
the size of the link-state packets (LSPs) and thus the link-state database (LSDB).
It also helps network stability because a summary advertisement is depending on
many more specific routes. A single route flap does not cause the summary
advertisement to flap in most cases.
The drawback of summary addresses is that other routes might have less
information to calculate the most optimal routing table for all individual
destinations.
Levels to choose from are:
• Level-1 - Specifies that only routes redistributed into level 1 are summarized
with the configured IP address and mask value.
• Level-1-2 - Specifies that summary routes are applied when redistributing
routes into level 1 and level 2 ISIS and when level 2 ISIS advertises level 1
routes as reachable in its area.
• Level-2 - Specifies that routes learned by level 1 routing are summarized
into the level 2 backbone with the configured IP address and mask value.
Redistributed routes into evel-2 ISIS will be summarized also.
