Yes.  We use a subnet with all zeros (128.36.0.0, where our subnet mask
is 255.255.255.0) for legacy reasons.

Whenever we bring up a new CISCO router on the 128.36.0 subnet we run the
router through the EZ config with a terminal --- and then after it refuses
to talk to the zero subnet we enter the advanced configuration command
'service subnet-zero' or 'ip subnet-zero' (depending on the CISCO IOS
release).
