Does anyone (Cisco, Juniper, etc.) have an auto-aggregation feature?
Let's say a router that receives the following prefixes under a single AS
206.51.128.0/24
206.51.129.0/24
206.51.131.0/24

And the following network is not in the table:
206.51.130.0/24

Then it would be usefull to collapse it into a single 206.52.128/22
aggregate (especially if the metrics & communities are the same).
