Diagram: BGP Route Aggregation and Route Summarization
We have three subnets in an System :
- Subnet A: 192.168.1.0/24
- Subnet B: 192.168.2.0/24
- Subnet C: 192.168.3.0/24
These subnetworks can be:
- Summary Route: 192.168.0.0/22
- Aggregated Summary Route (192.168.0.0/22)
BGP Route Aggregation and Route Summarization
BGP route aggregation and route summarization are key techniques used to optimize the routing process in large networks. Route aggregation involves combining multiple specific IP routes into a single, broader route, reducing the number of routes that need to be advertised and maintained.
In this article, we are going to discuss BGP in detail along with proper diagrams and explanations.
