Point-to-Multipoint and Loopbacks will generate host routes /32 in the
routing table.

Three ways to get a loopback interface into OSPF with a real subnet
mask:
1. "ip ospf network point-to-point" on a loopback
2. putting loopback in certain areas so you can summarize them using
"area range"
3. redistribute connected with restrictive list.

Subject: Loopback Interface and /32 Routes

Is there a way for me to keep loopback interfaces from generating /32
routes? I don't have the interfaces that I need for a lab, so I have
been
using loopbacks. They are clogging the routing table. Any ideas?
 
Thanks
