I believe the side affect is that you are vulnerable to routing loops.
For example you may be following a default route to them, whilst giving
them a summary route to you. If they send traffic to a destination
within that summary that does not exist, you will follow you default
back to them. They will send it back to you via the summary, ect ect.
If you had the route to null0 you will drop any traffic that you receive
that you don't have a longer match for. Hence loop prevention.
Does anyone know a similar command or method to the discard-route
internal/external to use for eigrp to stop the null route from being
installed?

Subject: OSPF Null0 DRoute
Hi Guys.
Have this question about summarizing external routes in OSPF and the
creation of the null0 to the summary address in the RT.
I know that I could use no discard-route external to avoid the creation
of the Null0 route, but I'm wondering what would be a side affect of
this operation. ?
Has any sense to create a Discard Route from a ASBR connected to other
routing Domain?
Thanks
Victor.-
