<div dir="ltr">Cisco has an interesting feature called ODAP (On Demand Address Pools). The idea is that the router will go and request additional pools from a DHCP server whenever a utilization threshold has been hit.

You can have each LNS aggregate part of the address space, then when a<br>
customer with IP that matches the aggregate lands on this LNS<br>
customers /32 won't be advertised, but when the customer lands on a<br>
different LNS /32 will go into your iBGP. Depending on luck you could<br>
cut in half the number of /32 in your iBGP.<br>
