Yep, distribute-lists could work in conjuction with Jonathan's suggestion of redistributing a static route. I wanted to know how to suppress the more-specific subnets and a distribute list would work. It would be pretty unwieldy for more than a few routes but it definitely would work.
Are you thinking of a method that uses only distribute lists without the static route? If so, let me know what you're thinking, I'd love to try it out. I know that would work in cases where, like in EIGRP, a classful supernet often resides in the routing table along with the more-specific subnets. A distribute list could be used to filter only the subnets. Thanks, John >>> Jim Dixon 10/22/01 9:10:00 AM >>> Hi John, What about Distribute lists?

I hope it's not too obvious or I'll be embarrassed. :-) While working on one of the Fatkid's labs I see the following in the Hints sections: 3. There are two built in OSPF methods to summarize OSPF routes. One way summaries between areas. The other summarizes between Autonomous Systems. Do you know a third way to summarize routes, which works for any router, running any routing protocol? How about a fourth? I was quite aware of the first two but I have no idea what the last two could be. I'm especially interested in the the method that works for any router running any routing protocol. I really have a feeling I'm going to kick myself when someone tells me what that is. Do any of you know what they're referring to?
