I the S to N workbook, for EIGRP summarization the task is to advertise a
summary route and SOME of the specific routes that are the part of the
summary to the neighbor. I advertised the summary route using the normal ip
summary-address eigrp xxx [summary-netowrk-address] [summary-mask] command
AND then I advertised the more specific routes as summary routes to the
neighbor. When I check the routing table of the neigbor I see my summary
route and also the more specific routes being learned from the neigbor
advertising the summary.
In the solution the summary-address is advertised using a leak-map +
route-map to identifiy the more specific routes of the summary.

In the lab scenario, if this requirement is presented then I automatically
would have thought about the straightforward option of advertising multiple
summary routes with the summary and more specific routes. I was not really
aware of the leak-map command.
How would we know if the lab is looking for a specific way to obtaining the
desired outcome? Ask the proctor, I guess or look for hints such as dont use
summary command more than once??

- Later,
