Explanation
When configuring an aggregate route, you have options for how to handle traffic that matches the route but does not match any more specific route in the routing table. Two actions can be taken: discard and reject. The discard option will silently drop packets that match the aggregate route. No notification is sent to the sender, and the packet is simply dropped. The reject option will drop the packet and also send an ICMP Destination Unreachable message back to the sender. This informs the sender that the packet could not be delivered because there is no specific route available.
