Hi Khaled,

Remember that with OSPF we cannot summarise in the same way as with other routing protocols. Each router in an area must receive all the topology information for the area, and all the routers in the area must have the same topology information.( The Link State Database will be the same for the whole area.) So we can only summarise where routes are injected into an area, at area border routers or autonomous system border routers. (ABRs and ASBRs)

On an ASBR we use the summary-address command and on an ABR we use the area /area-id/ range /ip-address mask /command.
