Q:

Given the following network range 192.168.0.0/24. We want minimum 50 hosts on each of the available subnets. What will be the subnet mask?

A) /24 B) /25
C) /26 D) /27
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) /26

Explanation:

Explanation: 50 hosts require 6 bits of the last octet giving us 64 -2 = 62 possible hosts this satisfies our requirement and leaves us 2 bits over for the subnets. The default mask is /24 or 255.255.255.0 adding the 2 bits for the subnets it becomes 255.255.255.192 or /26

Q:

You are the network administrator and are given the tasks to plan for the future expansion of the network. You decide to subnet the current network of 172.15.0.0. What will be the subnet mask be if every subnet has to allocate 500 hosts.

A) 255.255.0.0 B) 255.0.0.0
C) 255.255.240.0 D) 255.255.254.0
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 255.255.254.0

Explanation:

Explanation: The requirement of having to allocate 500 hosts on each subnet can be achieved by the following: 2^9 = 512. So deducting the broadcast and network address we have 510 possible hosts on each subnet. We used 9 bits to allocate the hosts, this leaves us 7 bits for possible subnets. Those 7 bits in binary is 1111 1110 or 254 in decimal.

Q:

Why is BGP a better choice for Internet routing than the IGPs?

Answer

RIP version 1 and IGRP are classful protocols and do not advertise subnet mask information. RIP version 2 has a limited network diameter of 15 hops. EIGRP, OSPF, and IS-IS use computational intensive algorithms for determining a shortest path. BGP relies on simple techniques for best path selection and loop detection, and can handle the number of network prefixes required for Internet routing.

Q:

How does OSPF determine the DR on a multi-access network?

Answer

The router with the highest interface priority will be the router ID. If all the interface priorities on the multi-access network are the same, the router with the highest router ID will be the DR.

Q:

What are the access, distribution, and core components of a North American phone number?

Answer

The last four digits are the used at the access layer to identify a particular telephone. The next three numbers are used at the distribution layer to identify an exchange that services several phone numbers. The area code is used at the core level for routing between different regions.
