Verifying Manually Summarized Routes

Route summarization impacts the routing tables on the routers, with different results depending on whether a router simply learned the summary or whether the router created the summary. Example 21-1 shows R1’s routing table, both before the summary route was configured on R3 (as shown in Figure 21-1) and then after R3 added the summary route configuration (as shown in Figure 21-2). (Note that the example shows only the routes learned by the routing protocol, rather than including the connected routes.)
