A technician checks the proposed subnet boundaries for 192.168.10.77/26: network 192.168.10.64 and broadcast 192.168.10.127. Select all statements that correctly verify these results.
- A
The proposed network address,
192.168.10.64, has all host bits set to zero. - B
The proposed broadcast address,
192.168.10.127, has all host bits set to one. - C
The given address,
192.168.10.77, is strictly between the proposed network and broadcast addresses. - D
The broadcast address must be
192.168.10.128because that is the start of the next block. - E
Because
192.168.10.77is between the endpoints, it is the network address.
For 198.51.100.206/28, a technician proposes network 198.51.100.192 and broadcast 198.51.100.207. Select all statements that correctly check the proposal.
- A
The proposed network address,
198.51.100.192, has all host bits set to zero. - B
The proposed broadcast address,
198.51.100.207, has all host bits set to one. - C
The input address,
198.51.100.206, lies within the proposed block. - D
The broadcast address must be
198.51.100.208because that is the first address after the block. - E
The proposed network and broadcast addresses are both assignable host addresses in an ordinary subnet.
For the subnet 10.4.7.0/24, the broadcast address is 10.4.7.255.
- A
True
- B
False
The CIDR prefix 198.51.100.25/33 is a valid IPv4 prefix.
