Jeremy,

Let's break this down.

Case #1

The router is going to adverise the 192.168.32.0 /21 route and supress the
more specific routes of that network because you have the summary-only
keyword added. So the more specifics with show supressed in your "sh ip
bgp". Then you have an unsupress-map pointing to your neighbor which match
ACL 1 which says 192.168.36.0 and any networks that fall into that class C
will be unsupressed to that neighbor.

Outcome : 192.168.32.0/21 and 192.168.36.0 will be advertised but anything
such as 192.168.33.0/34.0/35.0/37.0/38.0 will be supressed and therefor not
advertised.

Case #2

Your creating the same 192.168.32.0 /21 aggregate but not using the
summary-only keyword so none of the more specifics are being supressed at
this time and would normally get advertised to the neighbor. But, you have a
supress map being applied to the neighbor so anything matching the
192.168.36.0/x will be supressed to that neighbor.

Outcome: 192.168.32.0/21 will be advertised as well all the more specifics
EXCEPT 192.168.36.0/x

So to answer the question, No, I don't think they are the same. They both
advertise the 192.168.32.0/21 but the first one allows the more specific
192.168.36.0 to be advertised whereas the 2nd example denies that one but
allows the rest.

Close but not quite the same.

Subject: bgp aggregate suppress question

are these basically accomplishing the same thing (except one is going to a
particular neighbor)?

aggregate address 192.168.32.0 255.255.248.0 summary-only

access-list 1 permit 192.168.36.0

route-map not36 permit 10
   match ip address 1

neighbor x.x.x.x unsuppress-map not36

OR:::

aggregate address 192.168.32.0 255.255.248.0 suppress-map not36

access-list 1 permit 192.168.36.0

route-map not36 deny 10
   match ip address 1
route-map not36 permit 20
