A solutions architect is managing an operational workload on Amazon EC2 instances within an Auto Scaling group. The VPC configuration includes two Availability Zones (AZs) with a subnet in each AZ targeted by the Auto Scaling group. The VPC maintains a non-interruptible connection to an on-premises environment. The Auto Scaling group's maximum capacity is 20 instances. The VPC's IPv4 address allocation is as follows: VPC CIDR: 10.0.0.0/23, AZ1 subnet CIDR: 10.0.0.0/24, AZ2 subnet CIDR: 10.0.1.0/24. A new AZ has become available in the region, and the architect aims to incorporate this third AZ without expanding the IPv4 address space or causing any downtime. What is the most suitable solution to achieve this?
