Configuring Route Compression

When you enable or disable route compression, that process is performed in chunks, rather than as one single processing event. Because the ExtremeXOS Route Manager processes a limited number of IP prefixes per second, route compression should not have any significant impact on performance. Likewise, when IP route compression is enabled, incremental route addition or deletion should not have a significant impact on performance.

Note

You should disable iproute compression if MPLS (Multiprotocol Label Switching) next hop is enabled on the switch.

Note

IP route compression is enabled by default.
