Rather than how, perhaps the question should be why would anyone care?
That's largely why 1101 never got used - the nodes for which it might
have provided information that could didn't already know it via other
means, never had much of a reason to care.
Why would my nodes care what the network that contains some random IP
address might happen to be (or why would I ever care more than the
routing tables will tell me) ?
