Classful addressing follows the original IP address classes: Class A (/8), Class B (/16), and Class C (/24). Option A (10.225.30.0/8) is a Class A address, and C (172.16.0.0/16) is a Class B address. Option B (10.225.30.0/16) and D (172.16.0.0/24) use non-standard masks for their respective ranges, making them classless (CIDR). The original document incorrectly lists only A. Fortinet routing supports both classful and classless addressing. Exact extract: "Classful addressing uses fixed subnet masks: Class A (/8), Class B (/16), and Class C (/24)... Addresses like 10.0.0.0/8 and 172.16.0.0/16 are classful, while non-standard masks indicate classless addressing."
