Route Summary Advice

Patrick McHenry
Level 4
Level 4

Hi,

Our Home user routers are aquiring some pretty big routing tables and I would like to minimze them and also minimize the amount of routes be advertised back to the Main Campus. In a dynamips lab, I've done my summarizing only on the Georgia and Merrimack Headend routers. Is this the way I should be going about the summarization or, is their a more elegant way?

Thanks, Pat.

My configs on the headends look like so:

Merrimack Router:

interface FastEthernet0/1

ip address 172.20.68.1 255.255.255.0

ip summary-address eigrp 99 192.168.0.0 255.255.248.0 5

duplex auto

speed auto

!

router ospf 1

log-adjacency-changes

summary-address 10.1.0.0 255.255.248.0

redistribute static

redistribute eigrp 99 metric-type 1 subnets route-map EIGRP2OSPF

network 10.3.8.0 0.0.0.255 area 0

Hi Pat,

EIGRP by default advertise to the network level when you don't have the summary command configured  So, if you remove

no auto-summary

from you EIGRP config, the 192.168.0.0 255.255.248.0 will be summarized and advertised as 192.168.0.0 255.255.0.0 (default)

If you advertise 2.2.2.0/24, EIGRP by default advertises it as 2.0.0.0/8
