OSPF Summarization:

• Route summarization, also called route aggregation.


• It is a method of minimizing the number of routing tables in an IP (Internet Protocol) network.
• It works by consolidating selected multiple routes into a single route advertisement.
• The route summarization helps to reduce OSPF traffic and the route computation.
• OSPF support Route summarization only at ABR (Area Boarder Router) or ASBR (Autonomous
system boundary router).

Advantages of Summarization:

• Saves Memory -Routing tables will be smaller which reduces memory requirements.
• Saves Bandwidth -There are less routes to advertise so we save some bandwidth.
• Saves CPU Cycles - Less packets to process and smaller routing tables to work on.
• Stability -Prevents routing table instability due to flapping networks.

Calculating the Summarize route:

172.16.4.0

172.16.00000 001.0 = 8 + 8 + 5 = 21 => 255.255.248.0

172.16.00000 100.0

So IP will be 172.16.0.0 and subnet mask is 255.255.248.0
