Implicit in the concept of summarization is that all possible subnets are
included in the sumarization. A summary of 172.16.0.0/22 would include four
subnets (172.16.0.0, 172.16.1.0, 172.16.2.0, 172.16.3.0). The first 22 bits
of all addresses are the same. Only the last two change. (00, 01, 10, 11).
172.16.1.0/22 is not correct. BTW since summarization works on powers of two
the beginning address will always be an even number.
172.16.0.0/22 works but does not include the first subnet. Geoff's answer
covers only the stated subnets.
