To enable route compression for IPv4 routes, use the
following command:
enable iproute compression {vrvrname}
To disable route compression for IPv4 routes, use the
following command:
disable iproute compression {vrvrname}
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 next hop is enabled on the
switch.
