What is Supernetting?

Supernetting, also known as route aggregation or summarization, is the process of combining multiple smaller network routes into a single, larger route advertisement. This reduces the size of routing tables and simplifies routing by representing several contiguous subnets as one summary route. It is commonly used in large-scale networks and by ISPs to keep routing tables manageable.
