A network administrator is allocating subnets from the enterprise address block to provision a new datacenter VLAN that must support at least usable host interfaces. The design requires using the most efficient subnet mask possible to conserve IP address space, while ensuring all assigned host addresses strictly adhere to RFC 1918 private IPv4 specifications. Which statements regarding this subnetting design are correct? (Select TWO.)
- The most efficient subnet mask to accommodate the host requirement is ().Cevap
- The IP address is a valid private IPv4 host address within the allocated address space.Cevap
- CA subnet mask of () provides total host addresses, satisfying the requirement with minimal wasted addresses.
- DThe IP address is a valid private IPv4 host address within the block.
Cevap
The correct answers are the statement identifying 255.255.254.0 (/23) as the most efficient subnet mask and the statement confirming that 172.31.255.250 is a valid private IPv4 address within the 172.16.0.0/12 range.
The subnetting calculation requires 9 host bits () to support 500 hosts, making () the most efficient choice. Additionally, RFC 1918 defines Class B private space as to , which includes .
