You can use conditional advertisement to do what you are wanting to do. But as Randy mentioned you should really use communities with your upstreams to influence traffic. If communities don't work then consider conditional advertisement. http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/ios/12_0/np1/configuration/guide/1cbgp.html#wp9071 If you advertise your deaggregates you should still advertise your aggregate block. That allows those of us who don't care about your traffic engineering desires but do care about the routing table size to drop your deaggregates. At some point a lot of providers are going to be dropping deaggregates.

My question is, for example... If I have a /23 that I am using as a /23 in OSPF, can I announce that in BGP more specifically (2, /24's) without having to them break it up internally as well? What I foresee happening is this.. Example: BGP: Network 192.168.0.0/24 Network 192.168.1.0/24 OSPF: Network 192.168.0.0/23 I would think in this scenario, the IP addresses 192.168.1.0 and 192.168.0.255 would not have a route in BGP, even though they are valid addresses for use when used as a /23. Since I would be multi-homed, I would still advertise the network as the aggregate /23 on the circuit I don't want to take as much traffic, so would those IP addresses in this scenario still work, but only through the circuit I advertise as the aggregate??
