aggregate segment specified by the command will not be transmitted separately. This
can reduce the LSDB size in other areas.
Once the aggregated segment of a certain network is added to the area, all the internal
routes of the IP addresses in the range of the aggregated segment will no longer be
separately advertised to other areas. Only the route summary of the whole aggregated
network will be advertised. But if the range of the segment is restricted by the keyword
not-advertise, the route summary of this segment will not be advertised. This segment
is represented by IP address and mask.
Route summary can take effect only when it is configured on ABRs.
Perform the following configuration in OSPF area view.

By default, route summary is disabled on ABRs.
II. Configuring summarization of imported routes by OSPF
OSPF of the Switch 8800 supports route summarization of imported routes.
Perform the following configurations in OSPF view.
Table 19-12 Configure summarization of imported routes by OSPF
Operation Command
Configure summarization of imported
routes by OSPF asbr-summary ip-address mask
[ not-advertise | tag value ]
Remove summarization of routes
imported into OSPF undo asbr-summary ip-address mask
By default, summarization of imported routes is disabled.
After the summarization of imported routes is configured, if the local router is an
autonomous system border router (ASBR), this command summarizes the imported
Type-5 LSAs in the summary address range. When NSSA is configured, this command
will also summarize the imported Type-7 LSA in the summary address range.
If the local router works as an area border router (ABR) and a router in the NSSA, this
command summarizes Type-5 LSAs transformed from Type-7 LSAs. If the router is not
the router in the NSSA, the summarization is disabled.
