Well yes an no. Depending of case. But lets say that way that if your use case is that you have /20 network and then you have smaller (more spesific) netoworks inside your own infra you can do example that way
protocol static announce {
route x.x.x.x/20 unreachable; } That will generate advertise. Then your more spesific routes will handle real traffic. If you want you can filter these routes so that they will not go to kernel, but as far you have more spesific routes they will not harm you. If you do not have them then you need anyways static routes or some other route source for them and you can use them for advertisement.
Most of other softwares allow you to generate fake bgp advertisements in bgp protocol (and in most cases it is even standard way to do it) But I think that bird way is quite logical after you get used to it.

Hi All,
My name is David, I'm from Indonesia. I'm new on BGP and especially Bird. I configure FreeBSD 10.2 with Bird 1.5. I just want to know there is any way to advertise a network prefix without protocol static, please tell how if is it possible. I have read the documentation and I can't find any article that point me to my question.
Thanks in advance.
