Q:

You need to subnet a network that has 5 subnets, each wit at least 16 hosts. Which classful subnet mask would you use?

A) 255.255.255.192 B) 255.255.255.224
C) 255.255.255.240 D) 255.255.255.248
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 255.255.255.224

Explanation:

You need 5 subnets, each with at least 16 hosts. The mask 255.255.255.240 provides 16 subnets with 14 hosts - this will not work. The mask 255.255.255.224 provides 8 subnets, each with 30 hosts. This is the best answer.

Q:

What is the subnetwork address for a host with the IP address 200.10.5.68/28?

A) 200.10.5.56 B) 200.10.5.32
C) 200.10.5.64 D) 200.10.5.0
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 200.10.5.64

Explanation:

This is a pretty simple question. A/28 is 255.255.255.240, which means that our block size is 16 in the fourth octent. 0,16, 32, 48, 64, 80, etc. The host is in the 64 subnet.

Q:

Which mask should you use on point-to-point WAN links in order to reduce the waste of IP addresses?

A) /28 B) /29
C) /30 D) /31
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) /30

Q:

The network address of 172.16.0.0/19 provides how many subnets and hosts?

A) 7 subnets, 2046 hosts each B) 7 subnets, 8190 hosts each
C) 8 subnets, 2046 hosts each D) 8 subnets, 8190 hosts each
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 8 subnets, 8190 hosts each

Explanation:

A CIDR address of/19 is 255.255.224.0. This is a Class B address, so that is only 3 subnet bits, but it provides 13 host bits, or 8 subnets, each with 8,190 hosts.

Q:

If a host on a network has the address 172.16.45.14/30, what is the subnetwork this host belongs to?

A) 172.16.45.0 B) 172.16.45.4
C) 172.16.45.8 D) 172.16.45.12
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 172.16.45.12

Explanation:

A/30, regardless of the class of address, has a 252 in the fourth octet. This means we have a block size of 4 and our subnets are o,4,8,12,16, etc. Address 14 is obviously in the 12 subnet.
