# Introduction

A summary route summarizes a given subset of routes. For a summary route you add, if you select **ADVERTISED** from the **STATUS** field, any matching connected, static, or learned routes are suppressed from advertising to peer edge instances and only the summary route is advertised. For example, if you have connected routes 195.177.1.0/24 and 195.177.2.0/24 and a summary route 195.177.0.0/16, then only 195.177.0.0/16 will be advertised to peer edges that belong to the same profile as the host edge.
