Cisco IOS XR Routing Configuration Guide
Redistributing iBGP Routes into IGP
Perform this task to redistribute iBGP routes into an Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP), such as 
Intermediate System-to-Intermediate System (IS-IS) or Open Shortest Path First (OSPF).
Note Use of the bgp redistribute-internal command requires the clear route * command to be issued to 
reinstall all BGP routes into the IP routing table.
Caution Redistributing iBGP routes into IGPs may cause routing loops to form within an autonomous system. 
Use this command with caution.
Step 4
aggregate-address 
address/mask-length
 [as-set] 
[as-confed-set] [summary-only] [route-policy 
route-policy-name
]
Example:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-bgp-af)# 
aggregate-address 10.0.0.0/8 as-set
Creates an aggregate address. The path advertised for this 
route is an autonomous system set consisting of all elements 
contained in all paths that are being summarized.
• The as-set keyword generates autonomous system set 
path information and community information from 
contributing paths.
• The as-confed-set keyword generates autonomous 
system confederation set path information from 
contributing paths.
• The summary-only keyword filters all more specific 
routes from updates.
• The route-policy route-policy-name keyword and 
argument specify the route policy used to set the 
attributes of the aggregate route.
Step 5
end
or
commit
Example:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-bgp-af)# end
or
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-bgp-af)# commit
Saves configuration changes.
• When you issue the end command, the system prompts 
you to commit changes:
Uncommitted changes found, commit them before 
exiting(yes/no/cancel)?
[cancel]:
–
Entering yes saves configuration changes to the 
running configuration file, exits the configuration 
session, and returns the router to EXEC mode.
–
Entering no exits the configuration session and 
returns the router to EXEC mode without 
committing the configuration changes.
–
Entering cancel leaves the router in the current 
configuration session without exiting or 
committing the configuration changes.
• Use the commit command to save the configuration 
changes to the running configuration file and remain 
within the configuration session.
