From 210f94cb55fac7fc4ebf2ef0854e56ae59fa4d21 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: ngie Date: Tue, 12 Feb 2019 03:13:10 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] MFC r342904: route(8): clarify -prefixlen description Try to reword -prefixlen section to more clearly and accurately describe how the -prefixlen modifier works. While here, fix a word that igor considered a typo: aggregatable addresses is a valid technical term per RFC-2374, however, it was superseded by the term "aggregator" in RFC-3587.
