There is no need to update the subnet as VPC automatically adjusts the CIDR of the first subnet
based on the second subnet’s CIDR

B.
The user can modify the first subnet CIDR from the console

C.
It is not possible to create a second subnet as one subnet with the same CIDR as the VPC has been
created

D.
The user can modify the first subnet CIDR with AWS CLI

Explanation:
A Virtual Private Cloud (VPC. is a virtual network dedicated to the user’s AWS account. A user can create a
subnet with VPC and launch instances inside the subnet. The user can create a subnet with the same size of
VPC. However, he cannot create any other subnet since the CIDR of the second subnet will conflict with the
first subnet. The user cannot modify the CIDR of a subnet once it is created. Thus, in this case if required, the
user has to delete the subnet and create new subnets.
