Hi,

So you mean to say that, in the area range summarization command,
I will not be able to configure as below.

area 0 range 10.10.4.0 <http://10.10.0.0/> 255.255.224.0 .

It should be
area 0 range 10.10.0.0 255.255.224.0

Confusion arised as in some summarization commands, we configure the
the first network in the summary as the argument for the
summarization command.

Thanks
regards
