Classless inter-domain routing (cidr) is a method used to aggregate router entries in a routing table and reduce the size of routing tables at the backbone level. It enables the use of variable-length prefixes and enables hierarchical aggregation of routing information through border gateway protocol (bgp). The issues addressed by cidr, the concept of cidr prefixes, and the role of bgp in interdomain routing.
