John,

the summary-address command never worked anyways. It's a leftover of
bgp3/egp (I think). BGP only uses the aggregate-address command unlike OSPF
where you can use your "area xx range" or summary commands.

hope that helped.

Subject: Summarization?? What's that? (bug report)

While attempting to summarize some prefixes in BGP I got the
following:

R3#conf t
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
R3(config)#router bgp 2010
R3(config-router)#summa?
% Unrecognized command
R3(config-router)#summar?
% Unrecognized command
R3(config-router)#summar
                   ^
% Invalid input detected at '^' marker.

R3(config-router)#?

routing protocol
  synchronization Perform IGP synchronization
  table-map Map external entry attributes into

  timers Adjust routing timers

R3(config-router)#

I'm thinking it might be tough to do summarization when the
freaking command is missing!!

This is a 2500 running 12.1(11) Enterprise Plus. Too weird. I
didn't find a bug report for it on CCO but I can't be the only
person to run into this.

Since I don't feel like doing un upgrade right now, I'll skip
that part. <g>

John
