BGP is auto summarizing the networks to their classful boundaries.

Auto summarization for BGP is enabled by default for IOS versions
12.2(7)T and below. After 12.2(8)T synchronization and auto
summarization are disabled by default.

Hi,
a quick question for BGP....
R7 and R4 are directly connected and running BGP in between...
R7 has three loopback interfaces who are 150.100.0.7/24, 160.100.0.7/24,
170.100.0.7/24
In order to let R4 see these routes...under R7's bgp configuration i put

network 150.100.0.7 mask 255.255.255.0
network 160.100.0.7 mask 255.255.255.0
network 170.100.0.7 mask 255.255.255.0

But when i do show ip bgp route at R4, these three routes are showing

r4#sho ip route bgp
B 170.100.0.0/16 [20/0] via 172.17.59.238, 00:00:17
172.17.0.0/16 is variably subnetted, 9 subnets, 5 masks
B 172.17.0.0/16 [20/0] via 172.17.59.238, 00:00:17
B 160.100.0.0/16 [20/0] via 172.17.59.238, 00:00:17
B 150.100.0.0/16 [20/0] via 172.17.59.238, 00:00:17

Why these three routes's mask change from /24 to /16? Both R7 and R4 has
ip subnet zero configured...

Thanks a lot!
