BGP route aggregation

[jbemmel]

Similar to OSPF stub areas, I'd like to add support for BGP route summarization.

e.g.

bgp.summarization:
- prefix: 10.4.0.0/16
  summary_only: True

I could see several options for places to add something like that:

1. In the routing module (similar to static route entries)
2. In the bgp module
3. In the existing bgp.policy plugin
4. As a new bgp.summarize plugin

Any local preference?

It's not summarization but aggregation (sorry, couldn't resist)

bgp.summarization:

This would obviously be bgp.aggregate ;)

I'll add it to the bgp.policy plugin. It's a pretty simple addition, and it doesn't make sense to create a whole new plugin out of that.

Working on it...
