I'm not sure if this is what you are looking for, but if you were to
advertise this network with the aggregate address command from your AS,
assuming that your AS is the only way to reach it, then the AS Path
information prior to your aggregating it would be removed. I think you also
might need the summary-only option in this command as well.

The router would also set the aggregated network with the atomic aggregate
and aggregator attributes when you do this...

Subject: [nsp] [nsp] BGP - set origin

Hi,
can anybody help me in the following problem:

...Let my AS number be 70000 and a customer of mine has its own AS 80000
with a network x.y.w.z. My network and the one of my customer do not have a
eBGP peering. I would like to originate the network x.y.w.z from a router of
my network as if it was originated from the AS 80000 and I had an eBGP
session with the customer.
At the end of the day I would like that the result is that the network
x.y.w.z appears to the Internet related to AS 80000 that is "attached"
behind AS 70000.
I know about the Cisco command "set origin" does anyone see problems related
to that command?

Cheers,
Andrea Sala
