Configuring IP Addressing
Classless Routing
By default, classless routing behavior is enabled on the switch when it is configured to route. With
classless routing, if a router receives packets for a subnet of a network with no default route, the router
forwards the packet to the best supernet route. A supernet consists of contiguous blocks of Class C
address spaces used to simulate a single, larger address space and is designed to relieve the pressure on
the rapidly depleting Class B address space.

In
, classless routing is enabled. When the host sends a packet to 120.20.4.1, instead of
discarding the packet, the router forwards it to the best supernet route. If you disable classless routing
and a router receives packets destined for a subnet of a network with no network default route, the router
discards the packet.
