Configure EIGRP Summary Address Settings

You can configure summary addresses for each interface. You need to manually define summary addresses if you want to create summary addresses that do not occur at a network boundary, or if you want to use summary addresses on threat defense with automatic route summarization disabled. If more specific routes are available in the routing table, EIGRP advertises the summary address with a metric equal to the minimum of all the more specific routes.
