Usage
Information
You can use this command to summarize routes at ABR level. Summarized route must be installed in RTM
and advertised over OSPFv3 neighbors at area border router level (ABR). The not-advertise option in the
range command must suppress advertising of the specified summary route. Meaning, do not advertise the
configured ABR summary route along with individual routes that fall under the summary route. Default
behavior is advertise(set to TRUE. Type 3 summary-LSA is suppressed and the component networks
remain hidden from other areas). This command is restricted to the netadmin, sysadmin, and secadmin
user roles. The no version of this command disables the route summarizations.
