Command Usage
Redistributing routes from other protocols into OSPF normally requires the router
to advertise each route individually in an external LSA. An Autonomous System
Boundary Router (ASBR) can be configured to redistribute routes learned from
other protocols by advertising an aggregate route into all attached autonomous
systems. This helps both to decrease the number of external LSAs and the size of
the OSPF link state database.
Example
This example creates a summary address for all routes contained in 192.168.x.x.
Console(config-router)#summary-address 192.168.0.0 255.255.0.0
Console(config-router)#
