Marcial,

Here is a short excerpt from Cisco Website on IP Classless...

IP Classless

Where the ip classless configuration command falls within the routing and
forwarding processes is often confusing. In reality, IP classless only
affects the operation of the forwarding processes in IOS; it doesn't affect
the way the routing table is built. If IP classless isn't configured (using
the no ip classless command), the router won't forward packets to supernets.

Hi all, 

	I just want to make sure that I have understood correctly the
concept:
	Is the aim of ip classless to support default route rule in the
routing table? The route 0.0.0.0 is a match for any destination which jump
over the rule associated to "no ip classless" that says "best match in the
same network as the destination of the packet".

	It is a little confusing.

	cheers!.
