ROUTE PREFIX AGGREGATION USING REACHABLE AND NON-REACHABLE ADDRESSES IN A COMPUTER NETWORK

摘要

In one embodiment, a network device determines a set of routes to one or more reachable addresses and also a set of no-routes to one or more non-reachable addresses in a computer network. The routes and no-routes may then be aggregated into one or more reachable route prefixes with one or more corresponding non-reachable no-route prefix exceptions. As such, the aggregated combination of route prefixes and no-route prefix exceptions may be utilized by the network device.
