What is the advantage of route aggregation in a standpoint of router

Route Aggregation

• Route Aggregation methodology reduces the need for several routes by replacing with it a single general route.
• It is generally used for intra-domain and inter-domain routing purposes.

Advantages of Route Aggregation

• Reduces network overhead and load on the router by minimizing the entries in the route table.
• Reduces latency in a complex network whenever too many routers are contributed to the network.
• Avoids unnecessary routing updates after every CPU cycles change.
• Maintain the size of the routing table small as possible which saves memory space.
• Hides instability in the network system.
• Only uses a few routes which saves bandwidth.
• Only a few data packets are in process and a small routing table minimizes workloads on the processor.
