            . I know from the command that you used it's suppose to
advertise the
aggregate-address based on the classfull nature of the mask that is entered
with
 the command. So if you wanted to advertise the aggregate 160.10.0.0 only
you would need to the following statement;

"aggregate-address 160.10.0.0 255.255.0.0 summary-only.

Bassam Halabi's book goes into a number of scenarios on this topic. Based on
the following
output you included it tells us the route isn't being advertised to any
peers which is what
is meant by being suppressed. If the goal was to eliminate this network
from the routing
table(RIB), a route-map, distribute-list, filter-list and or prefix-list
would have been used....

show ip bgp 160.10.0.0
