A. Router (config) #ip classless

B. Router (config) #no ip classful

C. Router (config) #ip unnumbered

D. Router (config) #ip subnet-zero

Answer: Option D

Solution(By Examveda Team)

A Class C subnet mask of 255.255.255.224 is 3 bits on and 5 bits off (11100000) and provides 8 subnets, each with 30 hosts. However, if the command ip subnet-zero is not used, then only 6 subnets would be available for use.
