Correct answer & explanation
✓
Define prefix-list for more-specific routes
The correct order for BGP route aggregation with suppress-map is: first, define a prefix-list to match the more-specific routes you want to suppress. Second, create a route-map with a suppress clause that references the prefix-list. Third, configure the aggregate-address in BGP under the address-family. Fourth, apply the suppress-map to the aggregate-address command (typically as part of the aggregate-address command itself). Finally, verify the summary route and the suppressed routes.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Define prefix-list for more-specific routes
Why this is correct
Define prefix-list: This is the first step because you need to identify the more-specific routes to be suppressed before creating the route-map.
- ✓
Create route-map with suppress clause
Why this is correct
Create route-map: After defining the prefix-list, you create a route-map with a suppress clause that references that prefix-list.
- ✓
Apply suppress-map to aggregate-address
Why this is correct
Apply suppress-map to aggregate-address: After configuring the aggregate-address, you apply the suppress-map (often as part of the aggregate-address command) to suppress the more-specific routes while advertising the summary.
- ✓
Configure aggregate-address in BGP
Why this is correct
Configure aggregate-address: Before applying the suppress-map, you must configure the aggregate-address in BGP under the appropriate address-family.
- ✓
Verify summary route and suppressed routes
Why this is correct
Verify: Finally, use show commands to verify the summary route presence and that the more-specific routes are being suppressed.
