Q on ACI route summarization

Hi, we have ACI multi-site setup and thinking to use OSPF route-summarization towards the external Core Router. The L3Out and External EPG are local to the site (not stretched). Let's say we want to summarize all the 10.x.x.x.x/x subnets to the classfull level - 10.0.0.0/8, will the fabric advertise the summary route as well as its local BD subnets which are associated with that site-local L3Out?

Example.

Without Summary route (Export Route defined), BD subnets get advertised by their prefix:

Now with a Summary Route:

Routes can be summarized applied to the L3out ExtEPG.  If you apply a summary route, only that will be advertised externally and not the individual BD subnets.

Hey Robert, what about host-based routes for the stretched BDs. Does those get affected as well?
