I'm not sure if this will work, but it is worth trying - and the better
way to do this anyway.

On the PM do 'set user-netmask on'. Then change your RADIUS from:

Framed-IP-Address = 209.176.229.9,
Framed-Route = "209.176.229.8/30 0.0.0.0 1",

To:

Framed-IP-Address = 209.176.229.9,
Framed-IP-Netmask = 255.255.255.252.

That should apply the netmask to the connection. Better than forcing a
secondary route. But I don't know if this will eliminate the second route
in OSPF.

If not you'd have to open a request to have PMs do aggregating of routes.
