BGP aggregate-address

bellocarico · ‎03-28-2007

What is the difference in using an attribute-map instead of a route-map as paramenter of the

bgp aggregate-address command?

From the "?"

attribute-map Set attributes of aggregate

route-map Set parameters of aggregate

Thanks to read.

Hello,

attribute-map and route-map are equivalent

and do the same job, so no difference whatsoever beside the name.

Friend,

Though they perform the same thing, it should be noted that the attribute-map command can only be used along with the aggregate command and it references a route-map

Whereas the route-map can be used with almost anything for implementing the routing policy.

HTH, rate if it does

Narayan,

You are correct, however original question

was about the difference between these two

commands when both used with aggregate.

And as per aggregate usage, these two are

identical.
