[j-nsp] Summarize Global Table

[Robert Raszuk]

Chris,

Have you read draft-ietf-grow-simple-va-04 ? There is nothing in the 
draft nor in the implementation reg "route to the left".

It is all about "take the same door as your big boss when you exit and 
when you get new smaller boss in the middle who exist differently via 
different doors your net get's installed to still take a correct set of 
doors out".

As described to Shane semantically this is identical in default 
behaviour as installing all prefixes into RIB and FIB. However I would 
argue that if you do it within the POP you can do much better savings 
that the default behavior. But this is perhaps out of scope of this 
thread ;-)

Cheers,
R.
